2023 | Domaine Daniel Chotard Sancerre Les Cris | Loire
Chotard’s Les Cris is named for the small limestone rocks that stud the vineyard, which sits on a subsoil of rich Kimmeridgian marl—great dirt for Sauvignon Blanc! Simon Chotard always tries to include some botrytized grapes in Les Cris—grapes touched by the same “noble rot” that produces Sauternes—which contribute a subtle honeyed character that, when combined with the grassy citrus notes and a delicious minerality of classic Sancerre, creates an irresistible tart-sweet tension.
