Pierre Luneau Papin, Folle Blanche Wine 2020
- White

This dry white wine is 100% Folle Blanche, or Gros Plant, a variety used in the Nantais to produce a very dry white with good acidity similar to Muscadet or Picpoul from the Languedoc. Leesy, creamy aromas but super dry, light, zesty, citrus fruit make this a great aperitif or seafood wine and an absolute bargain.

One of the leading domaines of the Nantais, Pierre Luneau-Papin, hails from a long line of vignerons. The Luneau family is well established in the region; their presence here may be traced as far back as the late 17th Century. Pierre and Monique, his wife, are the 7th generation of vignerons to run Domaine Luneau-Papin, which was founded by Pierre's forebears in the 18th Century.
Having gained experience with Emile Peynaud and Pascal Ribéreau-Gayon, both of the Faculty of Oenology of Bordeaux, it is perhaps no surprise that Luneau-Papin is one of Muscadet's leading lights.
The family estate now consists of approximately 40ha of organic vines, with 38ha planted to Melon de Bourgogne located about 20 kilometres from Nantes itself. The vines have 45 years on average with some over 70. The wines produced are strikingly pure, with each cuvée expressing its unique soil-signature. They never fail to impress.
