How to serve it
Tasting notes
Bright lemon-silver in the glass. Aromas of green apple, lime zest, white flowers and a clear saline, flinty note. The palate is lean and energetic, with crisp acidity framing orchard fruit and a gentle creaminess left by the lees. It closes long and bone dry, with a distinctly salty, stony aftertaste.
About this wine
Clos des Briords is the bottling that made Domaine de la Pépière's reputation. The parcel sits on decomposed granite in Maisdon-sur-Sèvre and is planted with vines dating back to 1930, farmed organically by Rémi Branger and Gwénaëlle Croix.
Hand-picked Melon de Bourgogne ferments spontaneously in underground glass-lined vats and rests on its fine lees through the winter, bottled straight from tank without fining and with minimal sulphur. It is a vieilles vignes Muscadet of remarkable precision for the price, drinking well young but capable of ten years or more.
