Tasting Note

This single vineyard Muscadet has an amazing, almost exotic nose of acacia-blossom and lime-flower and fills the palate with layer upon layer of 'bread-and-butter' fruit. The yeasty sourdough smokiness lingers hauntingly and the length would grace a premier cru Burgundy.

Product Notes

Domaine Pierre Luneau-Papin Excelsior is a prestigious wine produced in the vineyards of France's Loire Valley. This sophisticated Muscadet showcases magnificent, pure explosion of flavours, blending ripe pear and crisp citrus with hints of wet stone. Defined by a profound minerality and extraordinary ageing potential, the wine presents bright acidity balanced by a velvety richness that caresses the palate, leaving a long and complex finish. Yielded from old vines, this age-worthy expression of Melon de Bourgogne is a true testament to meticulous care and dedication by the innovative Luneau-Papin family. Ideal for seafood pairings.
