Sancerre « Monts Damnés » 2018 - François Cotat

The 2018 Sancerre ‘Monts Damnés’ is an iconic white wine from the François Cotat estate, located in the Sancerre appellation in the Loire Valley. This historic terroir, composed of caillottes and flint, gives the wines exceptional minerality and precision, the hallmark of great, highly expressive Sancerre wines.

Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2018 vintage is characterised by its perfect balance between freshness, concentration and aromatic complexity. The estate's traditional and respectful winemaking methods reveal the authenticity of the terroir and the purity of the grape variety.

On tasting, this wine reveals a pale yellow colour with silvery highlights. The nose opens with intense notes of candied lemon, grapefruit, white flowers and smoky minerality. The palate is lively and crystalline, with remarkable tension and a long, salty finish, typical of great terroir Sancerre wines.

The 2018 Sancerre ‘Monts Damnés’ is a perfect accompaniment to seafood, grilled or sauced fish, mature goat's cheeses and refined dishes such as pan-fried scallops.

This cuvée embodies François Cotat's philosophy: to produce wines of great precision and vibrancy, capable of revealing all the complexity and typicity of Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc.
