Vignobles TwilEstimated delivery between 12 and Nov 14,
We are the only estate in Sancerrois to have the prestigious "hors concours" (beyond competition) distinction bestowed upon us, and the La Moussière vineyard is our cornerstone. Its terroirs, precious gifts from generations past, lie at the very heart of the Sancerre appellation. La Moussiere is the estate's flagship cuvee, its richness, energy and precision defining the Alphonse Mellot style. La Moussière is a wine that ages to perfection.
