2012 Domaine de la Pépière Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Clisson - France, Loire Valley, Pays Nantais, Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine (8/26/2023)
Worried that I had forgotten about this for too long, but the strength of the vintage and the producer were immediately apparent. Classic seashell and salt water with lemon zest accents, this showed a richness/depth that made the wine almost majestic in a carved statue way. I would be inclined to drink my remaining bottle in the near term, not because I fear a decline, but because the wine is so delicious right now.
