2015 Domaine de la Pépière (Marc Ollivier) Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Chateau Thébaud Clos des Morines - France, Loire Valley, Pays Nantais, Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine (12/5/2018)
Smells like a beach, all shell grit, sea-spray and seaweed. There is a riper element but it is not overtly fruity. If it is fruit, its of the yellow persuasion and it is a rich, voluminous wine with an airy feel. It has such a cool core with a saline finish and is the perfect beverage on this 38 degree Summer’s day.

hard to keep track of all his various bottlings. I just know they all are great value.

Hey, it’s 38 degrees here in Seattle, too!

And Alan, you are so right.

Had the 2010 Thebaud recently and it was phenomenally good. Promptly tracked down a couple more.

That’s a great line, Jeremy . . . very evocative!

Wishing it was 38 degrees here…
