Dense orchard fruit and lime zest build with impressive weight and concentration. The late harvest shows in the wine's broad, honeyed texture and compelling richness. Chalk and spice notes emerge on the long, powerful finish. Demands cellaring.

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.
