Tasting notes
Cotat's 2014 Sancerre Les Mont Damnés is pure perfume of its limestone terroir. The nose is just beautiful in its purity and flavors, a unique mix of lemon perfume, herbs, flowers and crushed stones. Full-bodied, very dense and intense on the palate, this is a highly complex and elegant, seriously structured wine. It has lingering minerals and fruit flavors in the endless aftertaste. The wine is tight and full of potential, a great and unique Sancerre.

About the producer
The other Cotat, Pascal Cotat, is cousin to the legendary François Cotat. The original family domaine was divided between them in 1998, and Pascal Cotat works many of the same vineyards, producing fine – if not quite as prized – Sancerre.
