2 yrs on lees. Bang! Lime, fresh white flowers, minerality and bristling with freshness. The whole package. Less big than piercing, fine and persistent. 93+ Points, Rhett Beiletti, B-21
Smelling of lime, artichoke, oyster shells and salt spray, the Luneau-Papin 2005 Muscadet de Sevre et Main Sur Lie L d’Or (reviewed among on-line addenda to issue 172, the text reprinted here) offers a wonderfully palate saturating range of saline and chalky mineral impressions and a broth-like richness (if slightly less vivacity than their 2004 L d’Or at a similar stage) and finishes with a combination of infectious juiciness and salty tang that reel one back for the next sip. 90 Points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (Aug 2008)
