When your name is Alphonse Mellot, you have little choice but to produce Sancerre, as the family has been doing since 1618. This is his classic white (he also makes a red with the same name), soft, supple, fruity and easy to drink. It shows the ripeness of 2005, leaving the intensity to other, more complex wines.
