Product Notes

Joseph Mellot Destinéa Sauvignon Blanc is a French classic, renowned for its enlivening aromas of gooseberries, grassy undertones and citrus zest. It is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes cultivated in the Loire Valley, France's heart of wine region. This wine delights the senses with its crisp, dry profile, featuring a well-rounded balance of acidity and a delightful flinty minerality. A sip reveals layers of lime, passion fruit, soft herbs and a hint of tropical fruits, all culminating into a lingering, refreshing finish. The mellifluous Mellot Destinéa is simply a matchless accompaniment for seafood and soft cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Elegant and floral on the nose, with hints of lemon and grapefruit. The palate shows good aromatics and balance
