  • Producer: Francois Cotat

The 2012 Francois Cotat Sancerre Les Monts Damnes is a white wine made by Francois Cotat, a small producer yet very highly respected in the Loire Valley. This wine is made entirely from Sauvignon Blanc, which is by far the most represented grape variety in Francois Cotat small vineyard.

One of the aspects that makes this 2012 Francois Cotat Sancerre Les Monts Damnes so interesting is its terroir: Francois Cotat estate sits on what is essentially a chalk plateau, with clay and limestone soils. Grape vines are notorious for thriving even on poor soil, but the differences in quality truly benefit the wines that come from these soils.

The wine we selected displays tropical fruit and honey notes, as well as high minerality. We believe the 2012 Francois Cotat Sancerre Les Monts Damnes can be suitable in rather different occasions, from a simple lunch to a particular event where you might want to impress your friends.
