{"product_id":"luneau-papin-muscadet-aoc-vera-cruz","title":"Luneau Papin Muscadet AOC Vera Cruz","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Domaine Luneau-Papin, run by Pierre-Marie Luneau and his wife, Marie, produces arguably the most ambitious and complex wines in the region, from biodynamically farmed vines across several crus within 6 kilometers of the estate.There's seemingly always a new cuvée in the works, as well as extended lees aging and the use of large wooden vessels. But more than anything, Marie Chartier-Luneau is one of the best evangelists of the potential of Muscadet to evolve and grow into a great wine—as good as the finest Chablis. This is why, when she starts talking about their cellarful of back vintages of L d'Or, she pauses: \"Just wait. Someday it li be priced like Raveneau.\" The deal lover in me hopes not, since the Luneau-Papin wines remain some of the best values in France, considering their astonishing quality.\" - Jon Bonné, The New French Wine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Something about the Vera Cruz's unique soils seems to create these alluring notes of white chocolate, quince, and nashi pear in the wine, supplemented with a faint note of white musk that draws you deeper into the glass. On the palate the wine is richer and rounder than expected with more body at 13% than the majority of Luneau Papin's wines, the flavour profile still wound tight with a ton of promise for the patient cellar keeper — at this age you find a wound up core of nashi pear and lemon with a fresh bread finish that rings long on the pallet. This is a terrific wine that deeply intrigues and wants to breathe, warm, transform — or better yet, age quietly in a cool dark place for another 10 years. Huge potential here. A very rich rendition of Muscadet.\" - Vino al Vino\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vine Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51973956174136,"sku":"128675","price":51.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/8739\/2312\/files\/LuneauPapinMuscadetAOCVeraCruz.jpg?v=1775686499","url":"https:\/\/vinearts.ca\/products\/luneau-papin-muscadet-aoc-vera-cruz","provider":"Vine Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
