Joseph Mellot – Domaine des Emois 2017 – Sancerre

The nose is fruity and offers a small fleshiness. It reveals notes of fleshy vine peach , crunchy pear and small notes of kumquat/exotic fruits associated with fine hints of citrus zests as well as an imperceptible hint of almond (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a good definition, a fine mineral frame, a fine juiciness, precision as well as a good guideline. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon and fleshy kumquat associated with small notes of fleshy vine peach, exotic fruits as well as hints of racy minerality, fine hints of pear and discreet hints of flowers (in the background). Good length.
