Domaine Luneau-Papin Le Verger Muscadet Sevre et Maine sur Lie – 2023

From 25 year old vines planted on schist soils, this gentle and elegant Muscadet dances with fresh, vibrant acidity and biscuity intensity from its six months maturation on its lees. Crystal-pure, long and mineral, this is a fantastic example of the sea-salty Muscadet region at a very fair price!

Biodynamic-certified Domaine Luneau Papin is one of the top producers in the Muscadet region – their wines have an extra level of intensity, purity and minerality to any other Muscadets I have tried. Husband and wife team Pierre-Marie and Marie Luneau Papin pay incredible attention to detail in the vineyard to produce grapes which perfectly express their different hillside terroirs overlooking the Goulaine wetlands and Atlantic Ocean beyond.
