For more than 500 years, the Mellot family has maintained a reputation for classic, terroir-driven wines. Company president Catherine Corbeau-Mellot grew up in a winemaking family, and when her husband passed suddenly in 2005, she stepped up to manage both the family and estate. Their 25-year-old son Adrien has now finished his wine studies and has taken on overseeing the vineyards. The entire team are dedicated to bring forward the essence of their terroirs through practices in the vineyard and the winery. They are respected for their principled and sustainable vineyard practices, and the wines of Joseph Mellot showcase the region’s best characters. This family is one of the longest-standing partners of Jones & Company.
