Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine "Clos de Briords", Dom. de la Pepière
Melon de Bourgogne
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Winery: | Pepiere |
| Description: | An old-vines cuvee of Muscadet from a single plot vineyard planted in schist. The Clos des Briords' deep clay / schist soil over granite has excellent drainage, which means Ollivier's precious 70+ year old vines never sit with wet feet. Ollivier allows longer hang-time before harvest for optimal maturity - all this attention concentrates the fruit creating a more powerful Muscadet (though that sounds like an oxymoron.) the Clos is very mineral-driven and quite austere in its youth, rather than fruity and light. Over a few months, or even years, if one can wait for it, it develops much complexity in aromatics and structure. |
