Description
Here Alphonse Mellot produces a Sancerre Satellite 2011 that is complex and refreshing. The old Sauvignon Blanc vines, aged between 40 and 77 years, are situated in Chavignol. The pale yellow robe reveals discreet hints of green. The nose delivers notes of white flowers, grapefruit and flint. The palate is open and rich with ample fruit. It is refreshing with notes of citrus zest. The evolution in the mouth produces a subtle iodine character on the finish. This Sancerre Satellite 2011 from Alphonse Mellot is a straightforward, fruity and ethereal white wine. In other terms, a wine that is both serious and complete.
