Alphonse Mellot Sancerre La Demoiselle 2021
From the producer: We are here on the flinty, clay soil, right on the Sancerre Peak, at the spot on the east side called "La Demoiselle".
The stone is compacted here into a dense layer of sharp, stumbling flints, a soil that is most unfamiliar to the Pinot Noir giving it great originality.
The flinty mineral makes the cherry seem almost like kirsch with peppery notes that are reminiscent of a côte rôtie.
A real surprise for such a great variety as the Pinot Noir.
