The Sancerre Caillottes 2018 from Domaine François Cotat reveals chalky soils through its aromas of citrus and saline minerality. This vibrant and balanced Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully with fish and goat cheeses, from now or after 2 to 4 years in the cellar.
A family estate rooted in Chavignol, where Sancerre expresses itself with rare precision.
- Terroir: clay-limestone soils of the Caillottes, in the Sancerre appellation, shaping wines of saline minerality and unique tension.
- Winemaking: traditional methods, minimal intervention, to preserve the purity of the Sauvignon Blanc and its aging potential.
Tasting notes for the wine Domaine François Cotat Sancerre Caillottes 2018
To the eye: a pale golden robe, of silky clarity, shot through with green highlights that betray its youth and vibrancy.
On the nose: aromas of lime and pink grapefruit unfold first, followed by a touch of fresh boxwood and a saline hint, like a sea breeze on warm stones.
On the palate: a taut and chalky texture, carried by vibrant acidity, where notes of candied citrus and persistent minerality intermingle, leaving a long and elegant finish.
Serve between 10 and 12°C, in a Burgundy-style white wine glass to reveal its full complexity.
