Domaine Alphonse Mellot - Generation XIX 2018

Domaine Alphonse Mellot is located in Sancerre, in the Loire Valley. At the beginning of the 19th century, Alphonse Mellot created an inn in Sancerre where he made people appreciate the wines of the country and thus gave his business a boom that would continue to grow. In 1881, a license was granted which allowed him to ship his wine to France and around the world. Since that date, the family business has continued to expand, from father to son, the eldest of each generation bearing the first name of the founder. Wines in the Sancerre appellation are produced at the Domaine de la Moussière but Alphonse Mellot ( ^19th generation) and his sister Emmanuelle also operate vineyards in the Pouilly-Fumé appellation.

The Generation XIX White cuvée is made from old Sauvignon Blanc vines (87 years old) from the Moussière vineyard, grown on an area of 1.10 hectares. The harvest is put into sequential pneumatic pressing and then is settled for 48 hours. Fermentation is carried out in 900 liter tapered vats . The wine is aged on lees for 10 to 12 months .

Grape variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
