TN: 2016 Domaine Pascal Cotat (Pascal & Francis) Sancerre Chavignol Rosé

  • 2016 Domaine Pascal Cotat (Pascal & Francis) Sancerre Chavignol Rosé - France, Loire Valley, Upper Loire, Sancerre (1/7/2019)
    Another killer Rose’ from a Cotat…the 15 from Francois blew me away with the amazing crushed geology and energy…his cuz’s is a little tamer in 16, but still posses that Cotat mineral magic…bowl full of fresh fruits, florals of orange blossom, roses, and strawberry field…crisp and refreshing with a nice sour cherry skin vibrancy…all framed in an elegant balance. Love how there is zero trace of martini alc fume you sometimes get in Rose’…pretty florals and dryness to the finish. Just LOVE um!! (94 pts.)

Great note. Like I wrote in another thread, choosing a favorite Rose among the Cotats and LdH is impossible.

BTW, they are first cousins, not brothers. The fathers Francis and Paul are brothers.

Thanks for clarifying that!

Nice note, great photo, have to try this one
