Winemaker Notes:
"Only 3 of Pépière's 43 certifed-biodynamic hectares of vines are planted to black grapes: Côt, Merlot and Cabernet Franc (known locally as Breton). They are in the 10-hectare "home" vineyard in Clisson, known best for the Muscadet from its granite soils de Bourgogne but where a gentle slope with a bit of clay and a southwestern exposure suit the black varieties. The grapes are harvested by hand, destemmed and gently crushed, with only the free-run juice used for the wine. It is fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts, followed by 5-6 months of aging in stainless steel tanks. The wine is classified as a Vin de Pays de la Loire, as there is no allowance for red wine in the Muscadet AOC."
