At bleedin' last ! A perfect Sancerre for under a tenner. Bone dry, crisp, perfect acidity, nutty smell and restrained citrus and mineral taste. Classic ! Sorry it's the food hall of a Cardiff department store and not something more national....but that can't be helped.. My local Sainsbury have just starting stocking the Alphonse Mellot Le Moussiere Sancerre 2006 for £14. A.Mellot is arguably Sancerre's top producer. The only Sancerre producers to get 2 stars in Oz Clarke's A-Z of wine are Mellot and Henri Bourgeois Have you tried this, Mel ? |

Sancerre La Moussiere 2006, Alphonse Mellot Sainsbury FW13.99 Not elder, or asparagus, but almost pineapple. Nice, but not what we expect or, particularly, want. Sweeter taste than expected. Full-bodied and not steely. 09/05/07 |
