The reputation — the story that sells at the table

Pépière has transformed the perception of Muscadet internationally. Clisson is a benchmark for extended sur-lie aging. Increasingly sought by natural wine enthusiasts.

Practice
Marc Ollivier's Domaine Pépière is the definitive address for serious Muscadet, proving that Melon de Bourgogne can produce wines of genuine depth and ageability. His single-vineyard Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine — particularly Clos des Briords and Clisson — spend years on lees before release. The wines reframe Muscadet as a grand terroir wine rather than a simple aperitif.
