100% Melon de Bourgogne. A few years ago, Pépière added 4 hectares in the Gras Moutons lieu-dit to their holdings. For this first vintage, they decided to vinify it separately and age it longer than from their classic "Gras Moutons". The "rest of the sheep" name is a play on the "fat sheep" of "Gras Moutons", in reference to its lengthier repose on the lees: 14 months vs. 9 months.

Like their Gras Moutons, the Repos du Mouton comes from vines in the cru of Monnières-St. Fiacre. The soils are gneiss-based, pebbly and sandy with little clay. As for all Pépière wines, the farming is organic and biodynamic and the vineyard work including harvest is manual. Repos was made identically to all of the other wines: the whole bunches were direct-pressed very gently and the juice settled naturally in steel tanks overnight. The must was fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and a small amount of sulfur. The young wine was moved by gravity to underground, glass-lined cement tanks. After 14 months on the lees, the 2022 was bottled without filtration or any additional sulfur.
