Alphonse Mellot Sancerre La Moussiere Biodynamic 2023 750ml
Expert Review - Vintage 2023 Vinous 90 Points | The 2023 La Moussiere is a rounded, airy wine with pure, clear fruit. It's finely textured with curved edges, both from time on lees (8 months) and a combination of aging in wood, concrete and stainless steel vessels. The pure fruit shines through with no evidence of oak flavor, allowing the pretty lemon, nettle and fresh pineapple characters to sing. Biodynamic since 1999, everything is hand-harvested. Winemaker Description La Moussière is the estate's flagship cuvee, its richness, energy and precision defining the Alphonse Mellot style. This 100% Sauvignon white wine has a floral and fruity nose combining white flowers with citrus fruits, a resplendent golden robe with glints of green, and a lively, refreshing palate. Fish tartare, smoked salmon or girolle mushroom omelette will go perfectly with La Moussière's freshness and purity.
