Situated in the Chavignol commune, François Cotat is renowned for crafting traditional Sancerre. Among the estate`s prized vineyards are Monts Damnés, La Grande Côte, Les Culs de Beaujeu, and Les Caillottes, the source of this particular release. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are meticulously handpicked, with a slightly later harvest, allowing the flavour compounds to fully mature. This results in the robust texture of the final wines, coupled with higher levels of residual sugar and alcohol. Consequently, François Cotat`s wines have occasionally been reclassified as ‘Vin de France’.

François Cotat's 2022 Caillottes is a lighter-bodied, delicate wine with fine tension and texture, which Cotat believes is down to the vineyard's chalky soils. It's aromatically restrained with subtle honey and biscuity notes meeting freshness. Despite Cotat's reputation for picking late and recent warm vintages (such as 2020) showing some high alcohols knocking the balance, this is just 12.8% and all the better for it.
