Domaine Alphonse Mellot Sancerre Satellite 2022, Domaine Alphonse Mellot, Sancerre. From five Chavignol parcels totalling four hectares of 40-77-year-old Sauvignon Blanc vines rooted in revered Kimmeridgian soils including Le Cul de Beaujeu and Les Monts-Damnés, this biodynamic cuvée pulses with 2022’s ripe chalky electricity. Aromas weave dense orchard fruit, mandarin, orange oil, creamy citrus, and subtle classy oak, framed by succulent white peach and piercing salinity. The palate thrills with deep texture, natural vibrancy, stony energy, and intense mouthwatering grip that lingers with refined persistence after spontaneous fermentation and large mature oak ageing.​

Mellot’s Satellite 2022 channels Burgundy finesse through Chavignol’s slopes – poised for two-three years rest yet thrilling now with its lacy supercharged frame. Pair with seared scallops, Chavignol goat cheese, or white fish to ignite its profound minerality; secure this striking Sancerre today.​
