Loire Valley winemaker Armand Mellot joins host Lyn Farmer to talk about one of France's (and the world's) greatest white wines, Sancerre. Sancerre is a place, and it is famous for making wines that are 100 percent sauvignon blanc. Long before New Zealand sauvignon captured a place on wine lists around the world, Sancerre was, and remains, the iconic example of the fresh fruit, striking minerality and zippy acidity of which sauvignon blanc is capable. Armand's family has been tending vines in Sancerre and its surroundings since 1513, one of his ancestors was the wine advisor to Louis XIV in the late 17th century and today his family is the only producer to own vineyards in all eight sub-regions of the Centre-Loire. Armand Mellot is an engaging ambassador of the region, a charming advocate for its wines and a great storyteller, as you will hear in this episode of Postcards in a Glass.
