Sancerre La Grande Côte Pascal Cotat 2009
The wine
Produced from a legendary parcel of marl and limestone, this wine is a pure expression of its terroir. Pascal Cotat intervenes as little as possible: no fining nor filtration. The wine is chiseled and powerful with notes of white fruit. On the palate, there is a pleasant minerality and elegance. Age for 5 to 10 years.
About the Producer Pascal Cotat
Pascal Cotat is one of the Sancerre appellation’s top winemakers. He created his doman in Chavignol, a city known for its goat’s cheese. He inherited the family domain which is shared with his cousin (François), 2.3 hectares. This small terroir is of top quality, with limestone giving vibrancy and minerality to its Sauvignon grapes. He also owns vines in the Les Monts Damnés and Grande Côte parcels.
