Tasted by: Andy Howard MW
The Cotat cousins share a different view to many Chavignol vignerons, creating individual Sancerres that don’t conform to the script. This wine is made with very late-picked, super-ripe grapes, giving it masses of density and concentration, with lightly grilled peach fruit on the nose and a natural residual sweetness on the palate, all checked by citrus acidity and mineral, saline characters on the finish. Needs coaxing out of the glass but has a very long future ahead.
