Muscadet-Sèvre-et-Maine sur lie Terre de Pierre Luneau-Papin 2014
The wine
Cuvée "Terre de Pierre" is made from 100% Melon de Bourgogne grapes grown on a parcel that was planted in 1974. The wine is aged on the lees for 14 months and stirred regularly. Once bottled, it expresses a distinct mineral quality and fresh fruit flavours. An ideal pairing for seafood platters.
About the Producer Luneau Papin
Domaine Luneau-Papin, lies in the Muscadet region, 20 km from Nantes, in the south of the Loire. The property extends over 40 hectares and is managed by Pierre and Monique Luneau who were joined by their son Pierre-Marie in 2005, representing the ninth generation of winemakers. Every parcel here is harvested by hand and vinified and matured individually to allow each terroir to express itself. The vineyards are planted exclusively with Melon de Bougogne. Today, the domain is so successful that more than half of its wines are exported overseas.
