Alphonse Mellot Sancerre La Moussiere, Loire, France 2023 Case (6x750ml) Faugeres Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot

Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot

It is full in the mouth with plush tannins and black cherry

The grapes were picked late-September and immediately whole cluster pressed over 6 hours using a champagne cycle method

all set against a backbone of fine-grained tannins

but the 2015 Coeur de Cuvée is even more impressive given the challenges of that year

Alphonse Mellot Sancerre La Moussiere, Loire, France 2023 Case (6x750ml) Faugeres Cabernet Sauvignon and MerlotA very fine gold color with a green sheen. Its nose has a flowery fruity bouquet. Being pure and honest it is seducer from the outset. Flowers flit around, trees bend down to give their most beautiful fruits to us and the air we breathe is so sweet in this garden full of sweetness that it is intoxicating.
