Description

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (Stephan Reinhardt, mars 2021) : 93/100. From clay-silex soils, Mellot's 2015 Sancerre La Demoiselle opens with a deep, fine and unique bouquet that combines iodine notes with those of raspberries, sour cherries, porcini, dried flowers, crushed stones, a hint of frankincense and, with aeration, port and potted plums. This is a beautifully pure, precise, reductive and absolutely fascinating Pinot Noir from a very warm vintage! On the palate, this is a full-bodied, dense, wide, rich, elegant, silky textured, vital and tensioned yet beautifully balanced grand cru Sancerrois with a persistent and very intense finish. Highly recommend to buy, drink and keep! La Demoiselle is a bit less reductive and tart than the Generation XIX, maybe more feminine (if I still may say so), very charming but tensioned and with great depth, generosity and perfectly ripe juiciness. A gorgeous, tight and persistent wine that, at this early stage, I even prefer to the great Generation XIX. La Demoiselle might mature faster, though. Drink date 2021-2030.
