Understanding Francois Cotat, Sancerre, Cul Beaujeu, Loire
The exceptional character of Les Culs de Beaujeu stems from its distinguished vineyards, perched on the limestone and clay hillsides of Sancerre. The combination of the unique microclimate and the age-old vines results in grapes of extraordinary quality and flavour. The cultivation process is steeped in tradition, with grapes being carefully handpicked at the optimal moment to ensure peak maturity. In the cellar, Francois Cotat adheres to a philosophy of minimal intervention. Vinification with natural yeasts in oak is standard and the wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered to promote terroir, varietal and vintage expression. These steps result in wines that display precision and natural fruit essence. Les Culs de Beaujeu features ripe citrus, orchard fruit, floral nuances and a distinctive minerality in a textured palate with vibrant acidity. This sought-after wine has the potential for graceful ageing.
