Afin de compléter sa gamme de crus communaux, la Pépière a fait un échange de moût avec le domaine Brégeon, le plus réputé de Gorges. Le successeur de Jean-Joël, Fred Lailler, a entamé une conversion vers l'agriculture biologique qui sera terminé en 2018-2019. Ce qui explique que ce 2014 n'est pas BIO.
Le moût a donc fermenté et a été élevé sur lies dans les chais de la Pépière durant plus de trois ans. Comme peuvent l'être les vins de Brégeon, on a affaire à un vin de garde qui ne se révèlera qu'avec le temps. Pour l'instant, on est en face d'un très joli vin. Mais dans 7-8, voire 10 ans, il sera assurément grand !
Dégustation : la robe brillante est d'un jaune paille intense. Le nez est fin, profond, sur les fruits blancs rôtis au beurre, le zeste d'agrume et la pierre humide. La bouche est longiligne tout en déployant une matière dense, riche, enveloppante, d'une impressionnante concentration. On n'est pas loin du monstre oenologique tout en étant d'une grande accessibilité. La finale allie puissance et zénitude : ça envoie du lourd, l'air de rien, avec du beurre citronné à foison, complété par le salin/minéral. C'est beau !

One of the widest selections of the web of authors' wines and craftsmen
What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
