The Nugget
Val De Loire | Red | 2023
This red Vin de Pays comes from the slopes of La Pépière, where the granite soil contributes to its unique character. Made primarily from Cabernet Franc, with a touch of Merlot, this wine undergoes a four-day cold maceration, followed by free-run fermentation. Aging continues in stainless steel tanks for five months, preserving its vibrancy and freshness thanks to the respectful viticultural practices employed in this exceptional terroir.

Domaine de la Pépière
La Pépière often begins with the soil: granite, gabbro, orthogneiss… each cuvée tells a story of geology. In Maisdon-sur-Sèvre, the Melon de Bourgogne expresses itself with rare clarity, supported by extended aging on the lees, which adds volume without heaviness. The wines retain a crystalline profile, imbued with precise tension and subtle salinity. Their consistency is impressive, as is their aging potential thanks to a perfectly maintained balance.
