The 2009 vintage was rated: Gault Millau 16/20
The Terre de Pierre cuvée is produced from a plot in the "La Butte de la Roche" vineyard, which was brought back into production in 2008. This new vintage opens with subtle, delicate, and elegant citrus notes, expressing itself with minerality in a pure "stone juice." A great Muscadet that will delight your seafood dishes!

Rated estate (2026 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the estate:

Pierre and Monique Luneau-Papin left their mark on their generation by crafting exceptional Muscadet wines. We owe them the magnificent Excelsior cuvée, a benchmark among age-worthy Nantes whites and a pioneer for the Goulaine village wine. Their son, Pierre-Marie, and his wife, Marie, are continuing the legacy and taking their quest to uncover the terroir’s identity even further. This is accurately 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, with amphorae occasionally used for certain vintages. These 40 hectares of vineyards have been cultivated using biodynamic farming methods since 2019. A thriving estate, producing contemporary Muscadets that are distinctive, precise, and invigorating.

A good wine—it’s fresh, even if it lacks a bit of body and intensity. Then again, those aren’t the qualities typically emphasized in a Muscadet. This is a well-made wine that’s perfect for sharing with friends.

It certainly shows great potential and a lot of finesse, but it is still closed as of early 2014; it is a wine for aging that needs time to open up.
