Melon De Bourgogne

Domaine de la Pépière

Clisson Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Melon de Bourgogne 2009

Doug Powers

Lemon and honey, stony minerality, great acid and depth on the palate, even at age 16 this has lots of life left in it (5-10 more years), very long, lingering finish, great Muscadet!! — 16 days ago

@Doug Powers thanks to a wine mentor I too learned of the beauty of aged Muscadet. He also educated me that Bojo can age. When ignorance is turned into knowledge, it can be very rewarding.

@Ira Schwartz, I remember visiting Marc Olivier @ Pepiere one January (2007?) with two of my wine group friends, he climbed in our car and we drove out to see some of the vineyards, including Clisson. The amount of shells and granite was amazing. One of the nicest vignerons I’ve ever met!!

This did not have the usual reduced matchstick thing going on, but more a tropical fruit profile. Nobody guessed it to be Coche at the table. Very balanced and beautiful for a BB — 9 days ago

This bottle brought me tremendous joy. My last bottle a few months back was over the hill and it really bothered me because I felt this could easily go 10+ years when I tasted it on release. This is a perfect example of there are no great wines just great bottles. Lovely scents of apple, lime and vanilla. A wonderfully integrated palate with a finish that makes you think premier cru. — 7 days ago

@Doug Powers I always would laugh about that when people would use that saying. Here were two bottles bought at the same time stored next to each other . Both corks were in good shape.

@Ira Schwartz, I’ve experienced it too many times to not believe it, particularly once the bottles have some age on them. Glad to read that this bottle met/exceeded your expectations!!
