The house’s ‘Tete-de-Cuvee,’ Domaine la Moussière, is a single thirty-hectare vineyard, where the Kimmeridgian gives way to the marls of Saint Doulchard and the chalky soil of Buzançais, resulting in a unique mineral complexity, nerve, and vibrancy rarely reached anywhere in the world, much less Sancerre. La Moussiere is certified biodynamic. The wine spends 7-8 months on fine lees after fermentation, prior to bottling.
Alphonse Mellot 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.
