Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Jean-Jacques Bonnet and Vincent Pineau are the duo at the helm of this family-run estate, which is cultivated using biodynamic methods, with the aim of bringing out the best in the gneiss, mica schist, amphibolite, and granite soils. All the wines are increasingly expressing their terroirs, a superb achievement exemplified by the Goulaine village wine, which is powerful and built for aging.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the wine:
On granitic soils, Les Laures reveals an energetic character and a full-bodied mouthfeel that set it apart from the rest. Its fine texture is truly invigorating.
About the estate:
The Bonnet-Huteau family has been at the helm of the family estate for 150 years. Today, two passionate winemakers, Jean-Jacques Bonnet and Vincent Pineau, manage the 40-hectare property, which was certified biodynamic in 2010. Four terroirs are vinified separately to bring out their finest expression. On Les Dabinières—with its warm gneiss and mica schist soils—the fruit expresses itself with roundness. On the amphibolite and mica schist of Les Gautronnières, the melon notes become mineral and taut. The poor, granitic soils of Les Laures yield a denser, more complete wine. Produced in the finest vintages and aged for 18 months on lees (the minimum requirement), the Goulaine village wine reveals depth and is built for aging. While the wines are full of energy, we do have reservations about the Medolia cuvée, whose aging in dolia seems to diminish its natural vitality.
