La Pépière, Muscadet Sèvre et Maine (Loire Valley, France) “La Pépie” 2022 ($18, Louis / Dressner Selections)

La Pépière, a consistently good and reliable producer of Muscadet, comes through with another winning example with their 2022 La Pépie. Crisp, clean, saline-tinged acidity makes this well suited to light-bodied summertime drinking with anything from the sea. You can’t beat it at the price.
