Honeyed weight meets razor-sharp minerality in this exceptional Sancerre from Chavignol's oldest plantings. Citrus pith and stone fruit unfold with serious depth, while chalky limestone drives through the core. The concentration is obvious. Dense, focused and built for the long haul. Still coiled tight but showing magnificent potential. Drink 2018-2028.

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.
