Wine Region: Loire Valley - France
Grape: Pinot Noir
Tasting notes:
Beautiful ruby red colour, firm and deep - ripe appearance. Its nose is rich and complex. This wine is seductive, packed with culture and very distinctive, plucking for our pleasure mulberries, bilberries and morello cherries and offers us Eastern spices - pink peppercorns, vanilla and cinnamon on a crisp background.
Predominantly well balanced, the effect is powerful and rich in alcohol; it surrounds and covers. The fruit and spices go with a fine woody with ripe tannins.
About the winery:
In 2013, this historic estate celebrated its 500th anniversary – 19 successive generations of winegrowers in the Mellot family. Today Alphonse Jr. is in total charge, having taken over the reigns from his father Alphonse Sr. fully fifteen years ago. The property, known as La Moussiere, is now at the height of quality for white wines world-wide. All farming is organic and certified biodynamic, with an elite team in the vineyards focused on low yields and ideal ripeness. Their Sauvignons have acquired a rare precision and each parcel is well-defined, perhaps even more so with the reds.
