Alphonse Mellot Sancerre La Moussiere Rouge, Loire, France 2020 Mario Schiopetto 19% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4%Very fine deep crimson color. Hints of small red and black fruit like raspberries, currants, mulberries and morello cherries, with spicy traces of pink peppercorns, vanilla and cinnamon on the nose. It is mellow, well rounded and well structured. A woody background goes with spicy traces and aromas of fruit. A wine long in the mouth, high in alcohol and pleasant, a real winner.
