Golden raisins, soda bread, lemon, orchard fruit, nice body, tart rainier cherries — 5 months ago
Just delicious- lovely balance — 7 months ago
Very youthful, medium‑plus bodied Hermitage with a clearly fruit‑driven profile.
Nose: black cherry, blueberry and raspberry, light floral note, minimal smoke or oak spice.
Palate: similar dark and red fruits, moderate tannin, fresh acidity, medium‑plus finish, no noticeable volatility or flaws.
Structure suggests it will improve with a few years of cellaring but is already drinkable with a short decant.

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2024 “Les Monts Damés” pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with white flowers, grapefruit, star fruit, alfalfa, and cream cheese stuffed poblano pepper. There’s also this Double Bubble thing going on. Wild stuff. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. In a world of increasing ambiguity, I love that this is immediately identifiable as Sancerre. Drink now through 2034+. — 7 months ago

Not what I expected i assumed elegance and was surprised that it was so full of fruit at this age. Another 5 yrs would help but right now it so pleasurable. — a year ago

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. 🍷

Popped and poured; no formal notes. Living during a time where the climate in the Loire is so brutally warm, it’s increasingly harder to find characteristic Sancerre. While it might not be the most exciting example, this has all the tropical fruit, grapefruit, limes and grassy notes you could want. Solid acid too. Drink now. — 5 days ago
