We feel so grateful and proud the highly respected Wine Spectator features our region, family, words and wines in its coming May edition.

Thanks to Kristen Bieler for her interest in Loire wines and Muscadet, and for her precise and positive words about the dynamic of our region.

“A determined group of ambitious producers has been dialing into the assets of the place – a single noble grape variety, old vines, unique geology, a tradition of long aging on lees – and turning out serious, intensely mineral, cellar-worthy wines that check a lot of the same boxes as great Burgundy at a fraction of the price.”

“The cru system has helped us understand who we are and it has helped us push quality even higher, says Lieubeau, whose family was instrumental in its creation”.
