More information
Joseph Mellot is one of the foremost names in Sancerre, with a winemaking heritage stretching back to 1513. The estate is now owned by Catherine Corbeau Mellot who, thanks to a longstanding friendship with our buyer, reserves this Loire Sauvignon Blanc exclusively for our customers each vintage. That means you can sample the estate’s impeccable winemaking without splashing out on a pricy Sancerre. Made from selected prime plots of Sauvignon grapes from across the Loire region, then aged on lees, Sincérité is an elegant, vibrant white. Crisp and steely with hints of gooseberries, cut grass and elderflower, it makes for a top aperitif. It works equally well with grilled white fish, noodles with prawns, basil and tofu or with goat’s cheese.
