When it comes to Sancerre, Cotat's village of Chavignol is a special place. And La Grande Côte is king.
François Cotat is know for his lavish, complex expressions of Sancerre. His Caillottes works on an entirely different wavelength.
Gérard Boulay's Sancerres are some of my favorite expressions of the appellation. The Boulay family has held land in Sancerre for over 600 years. Along with Vatan and the Cotat cousins, Boulay produces some of the most elegant, complex and long-lived Sancerre.
Check out the best wine lists or carefully selected cellars and it's a safe bet that you'll find François Cotat's wines.
François Cotat's Sancerres have long exemplified just how ageworthy, grand and compelling the wines can be. The wines really exist on their own plane. Only the Sancerres of Vatan and François' cousin Pascal are held in a similar regard.
When it comes to Sancerre, Cotat's village of Chavignol is a very special place. Today, we focus on Chavignol's top two vineyards from one of the region's longstanding benchmarks.
No Rosé on earth ages the way that Pascal Cotat's does. Without question, it's one of the most serious and collected rosés around. This all adds up to it being in short supply. Allocations are typically a case or two.
I have to admit it. Cotat's wines had fallen off my radar. Then, I had a bottle of 2000 Les Monts Damnés at a restaurant a month ago. Suddenly, I found myself looking at my storage and kicking myself for not buying more.
