Luneau-Papin, in Le Landreau, is one of the greatest addresses in Muscadet — up there with Pépière, Bregeon and Landron — and \"L d'Or\" is the family's flagship: old vines on a narrow vein of granite and two-mica gneiss off the Armorican Massif, native-yeast fermented and left unracked on its fine lees in underground glass-tiled vats before bottling sur lie. Low alcohol, high natural acidity, no oak and long lees contact are what let a wine like this go two decades and pick up quince, hazelnut and beeswax on the way — the reason the cuvée has been the appellation's ageing benchmark since the late 1990s. 2009 escaped the spring frosts, ran warm and dry through summer, and finished with a fine, warm September; Muscadets came in richer than usual, and this one is broad and sunny where the 2007 and 2008 are taut. It drinks wonderfully now with a good decade still in front of it. Serve cool, not cold, in a proper glass.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Bowler Wine [DBW]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46368393035833,"sku":"NYC-W-DBW-`DBW`-081826-5","price":115.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Luneau-Papin-Muscadet-Sevre-et-Maine-L-DOr-2009-White-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1788273635","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/luneau-papin-muscadet-sevre-et-maine-l-dor-2009","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
