Alphonse Mellot Génération XIX 2019
- 750 ml bottle
Product details
The 2019 Sancerre Génération Dix-Neuf (XIX) is deep, complex and subtle on the nose that reveals flinty as well as yeasty and delicate phenolic notes intertwined with perfectly ripe and elegant stone fruit aromas such as mangos. Fresh, round and very elegant on the palate, this is a medium to full-bodied, minerally tensioned and elegantly textured Sancerre with fine tannins and an intense and saline finish. The only problem I have: the wine is already pretty matured. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2022. Drink date: 2022-2028. Score - 93.
