Place: Sancerre - Loire Valley, France
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Farming: Organic
François Cotat is one of Sancerre’s legendary producers, making wine much as his family has since the 1940s — tiny yields, late harvesting, native yeasts and old foudre. From some of his oldest Sauvignon vines comes a beautifully expressive wine, packed with orchard fruit, cool acidity and chalky minerality. Generous and full of personality, yet incredibly fresh, precise and unmistakably Sancerre.
Named after François’ father, Cuvée Paul is an incredibly rare Sancerre, made only in exceptional years from the two best barrels in the cellar. Rich and powerful, with citrus, pineapple and passionfruit alongside orange peel and exotic spice, there’s a touch of sweetness balanced by bright acidity and stony freshness. A seriously special bottle.
