Sancerre’s historic, family-owned winery Joseph Mellot is making its debut in China!

From September 22 – 28th, the 500 year old family-owned winery Joseph Mellot from Sancerre, France will be celebrating its launch in China. Winery owner Catherine Corbeau-Mellot will travel through Hong Kong, Macau, Shenzhen, Shanghai & Beijing, launching the brand through a variety of interactive activities including cocktail events, staff trainings and VIP dinners. Now celebrating 500 years of winemaking, we are honored to welcome Catherine Corbeau-Mellot to China to share her family’s history and wine-making culture with China.

The Mellot dynasty of the Joseph Mellot wine estate in the Loire Valley was founded in Sancerre over five centuries ago (1513) by Pierre-Etienne Mellot and, since then, the family has always been involved in winemaking. In fact, in 1698, César Mellot was entrusted with the weighty task of advising King Louis XIV on his choice of wines.
