Pure summer berry flavors and a whiff of crushed chalk on the finish. This “non-vintage” vin de table is indeed grown within the Sancerre appellation, yet was declassified by village authorities as part of an unfortunate small-town spat. (Officials want to build a parking lot over the vineyard.) So far, the fight continues, and Cotat’s vines—planted in the 1930s—are safe for now.

Very mineral nose of limestone and rock dust. Good concentration but pretty austere. A hint of strawberry, cherry and mint. Not sure how I feel about this one. Maybe just needs time.
