Domaine Pascal Cotat

La Grande Côte Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2015

Soms heb je zo’n glas waar alles samenkomt.

Pascal Cotat, Sancerre Le Grande Côte 2015.
En wát een wijn is dit weer zeg, zo blij met mijn geduld 😃

Alles waar je op hoopt bij rijping, gebeurt hier. De spanning is er nog, maar nu verweven met rijp fruit, een bijna wasachtige textuur en die zilt-minerale diepgang die maar blijft doorgaan. Dit is geen frisse, strakke Sauvignon Blanc, dit is gelaagd, complex en serieus indrukwekkend.

Het mooiste?
Dit bevestigt precies waarom geduld loont. Deze wijn hééft tijd nodig. En als je ‘m dat geeft, krijg je iets terug dat echt buitencategorie is.

Ik zeg het niet snel, maar: dit is echt mijn wijn. En dat terwijl ik normaal geen uitgesproken liefhebber ben van deze druif.

Maar dit… dit is gewoon geniaal. 🍷

Geweldig Willem. Ik heb nog 1 Cotat in de kelder, zie ernaar uit.

Leuk om te lezen, ik heb vorig jaar een fles van hooguit twee jaar oud open getrokken en was niet onder de indruk (ook geen SB fan). Laat nu de rest liggen in de hoop dat ik net zoiets als jij ga meemaken!

Rosemary's Vineyard Pinot Noir 2023

Smells like an Oregon pinot! Had a lot of minerality, almost a little graphite-y, with a slight tartness. Great! — 3 months ago

Grande Cuveé 168ÈME Édition Brut Champagne Blend

This is aging very well. 6 more bottles of the 168 in the cellar and very much looking forward to how they will evolve. Right now the 168 is in a great place and the 2nd maturation flavors are beginning to appear. Floral, acidic, Krug, caramel - it’s all there. Early to drink, but much more to come — 4 months ago

La Grande Côte Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Old Sancerre, such a rarity, preserves that precision focused acidity and notes of dried lemon, dried pineapple and dried peach. Finish is refreshing. Wow. — 4 months ago
