“Intensity and great finesse—a flavorful, complex wine... La RVF!”

Grown on granite soils, the Melon de Bourgogne grape truly shines here. The result is a wine with an expressive and very fresh nose, featuring a profile that is both floral and fruity. It displays superb balance on the palate, with beautiful aromatic definition, lovely precision, and a lovely, lingering finish. A must-try wine from the estate!

Wine rated (2027 guide) 96/100 Favorite

Rated estate (2026 guide): 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience.)

About the wine:

Graceful, smooth, flowing, and mouth-watering balance for L d'Or, who will perform magnificently.

About the estate:

Pierre and Monique Luneau-Papin left their mark on their generation by crafting great Muscadet wines. We owe them the magnificent “Excelsior” cuvée, a benchmark among age-worthy Nantes whites and a pioneer for the Goulaine communal wine. Their son Pierre-Marie and his wife Marie are carving out an indelible legacy in Muscadet through their quest to reveal the identity of the terroirs—a vision faithfully reflected in all their wines, from Vera Cruz (quartz, mica schist, and two-mica schist) to Gula-Ana (peridotite and serpentinite from the fabulous Butte de la Roche, one of the most enchanting sites in Muscadet). The wines are aged primarily in underground concrete tanks lined with glass tiles, sometimes supplemented by terracotta amphorae, stoneware jars, barrels, and casks. These 27 hectares have been farmed biodynamically since 2019. A thriving estate, producing contemporary Muscadets that are distinctive, precise, and invigorating. We are in the realm of great wines, and it is only natural to reward this outstanding work with a third star this year.
