Staff Notes:
"Domaine Luneau-Papin’s 2017 Muscadet “L d’Or” Granite is a stellar example of this difficult vintage in Muscadet. The wine delivers beautiful aromatics in its constellation of lemon zest, bread fruit, sweet and gentle nutty tones from the lees contact, white flowers, a touch of straw and a salty base of minerality. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, focused and rock solid at the core, with superb focus and grip, outstanding energy and backend mineral drive and a long, complex and vibrant finish. This is a stellar bottle of Muscadet.” 94 Points John Gilman. View From the Cellar
