Muscadet Sevre et Maine Gorges 2019 Domaine de La Pepiere
Domaine de La Pepiere's Muscadet Sevre et Maine Gorges is a dry white wine produced in the Loire Valley region of France. This wine is made using only grapes of the Melon de Bourgogne variety, which are grown on the slopes of a river valley called Gorges, located in the Muscadet Sevre et Maine production area.
The terroir of this area is characterized by clay and sandy soils, rich in minerals such as granite and gneiss, which give the wine its distinctive mineral and salty notes. The area's climate is predominantly oceanic, with continental influences, which help maintain the wine's freshness and acidity.
The vines are grown using organic farming techniques, with great attention paid to sustainability and the biodiversity of the terroir. Vinification is done in the traditional way, with natural fermentation and the use of indigenous yeasts, to preserve the characteristics of the terroir and grapes.

The nose has notes of citrus, white flowers and minerals, while in the mouth it is fresh, savory and mineral, with a pleasant acidity that makes it perfect as an accompaniment to fish and seafood dishes. Aged in the bottle, this wine may develop notes of honey and hazelnut, but it is generally appreciated for its freshness and ease of drinking.
