Domaine de la Pépière 2023 Muscadet Les Gras Mouton
Over the years, Domaine de la Pepiere has been our most beloved and best selling Muscadet producer by far. The Pepiere Muscadets are stunning in their youth for their crystalline minerality, incredible freshness, and as scintillating partners with seafood, especially shellfish. The Cru wines also age exceptionally well. Les Gras Mouton, or “The Fat Sheep” comes from a south-facing hilltop site in the cru of Monnières-Saint Fiacre, where the vines range in age from 20 to 60 years. The site's gneiss-based soils, mixed with clay and amphibolite stones, distinguish this bottling from Pépière's other more granite-based Muscadets -overlaying its core of citric acidity and stony minerality with a lovely viscosity which adds a sense of richness to the Gras Moutons. Enjoy now and often through 2030.
