Description
From the 16th century, and very precisely in 1513, the local archives mention the family MELLOT, who lived already at the regular rhythm of the vine and the quality wine. At the beginning of the 19th century, ALPHONSE MELLOT creates in Sancerre an inn where he makes appreciate the wines of the country and thus gives to his trade a success that will not stop. In 1881, a license is granted that allows him to ship his wine in France and around the world. This is the beginning of a peaceful conquest, and since that date, the family home continues to expand, from father to son, the eldest of each generation bears the name of the founder.
It is thus that Alphonse MELLOT father and son (respectively 18th and 19th of the name), perpetuate this old wine tradition. This Pouilly-Fumé is from parcels from the municipality of Saint-Andelain.
