WineSaint
Burnished gold with a cloudy cast signals two decades of patient evolution. Roasted nuts and wet stone drive the aromatics with Cotat's trademark intensity. The palate shows massive concentration yet stays vibrant through razor-sharp acidity that slices through the wine's natural power. Mineral-laced flavors echo endlessly, revealing the magic that time works on serious Sancerre.

François Cotat
→François Cotat produces some of Sancerre's most singular whites from the limestone slopes of Chavignol, with wines built for aging rather than early drinking. A reference point for the appellation's serious side.
