My first Gorges from Pepiere, and it was fantastic. Different than my regular Pepiere bottlings, Briords, Thebaud, and Clisson, all of which are more direct, piercing, driven. This had a touch of cream, at least by Muscadet standards. Lemon sherbet, crushed ice, hint of cream, white flower, touch of citrus oil. Really excellent. Would gladly have much more of this. Like all Muscadet, buy in the lean years, avoid the ripe ones.

Colore giallo paglierino brillante con riflessi verdognoli. A livello olfattivo prevale la componente fruttata, con evidenti note di limone, mela verde e pesca bianca, e una parte floreale più dettagliata. In bocca è di corpo leggero, ma non manca di complessità in mezzo al palato, dove una decisa sapidità e mineralità imprimono una suggestione di un sorso salmastro e oceanico. Buona acidità e lunghezza sul finale.

Very nice! Sharp and crisp with saline, mineral, and lemon notes. Great with Fried Chicken.
