WineSaint
Smoky minerals and honeyed pear build with tremendous depth and concentration. Dense orchard fruit carries sneaky power beneath its elegant surface, while persistent anise threads through a sappy, focused finish. The most muscular expression in Cotat's range, yet never loses its crystalline precision.

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.
