September 30, 2019 - Danilo’s Private Tasting (Restaurant The Lobby Fizeaustraat, Hotel V, Amsterdam, NL): Amazing harmony and elegance, minerals, elegance, tropical fruit and pyrazines, honeyed nose and finish, lively for age, more than hint of straw.

March 9, 2017 - It’s the Cotat magic that makes these wines lush and precise at once, savory and saline, with stony persistence, endless complexity, depth and a bit of flinty smoke !! and over the course of tasting there are definite textural similarities to, Raveneau …

June 16, 2016 - A Night of Truly Diverse Wines (Newtown, Sydney): A provocative, almost divisive wine, one which I very much enjoyed. A strong funk resembling apple cider vinegar quickly blew off, giving way to softer apple skin notes and some faint truffles. Very clean on the palate, with additional citrus aspects and bright acidity. Youthful and intriguing.

May 25, 2016 - Masterclass Sancerre Domaine François Cotat by Moritz Peeters (Restaurant Dertien Rotterdam): From magnum. Wow, 20 years old and very much alive! Flowers, sage, sweetness. Great!
