Domain: Luneau Papin

Let’s head to Muscadet and to a veritable local institution, where Pierre-Marie and Marie vinify the Melon de Bourgogne grape in all its guises with over ten single parcel cuvées. The wines are remarkably precise for accessible prices. Don’t hang around!

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.
