Community Tasting Notes 23

  October 27, 2023 - Pale--almost green (from magnum) Citrus (grapefruit) and quite subtle herbal notes, but followed by a dense and powerful palate, ending razor sharp. Delicious and refreshing. Better than the 2016 from bottle. 2 magnums consistent. No rush.

  August 21, 2023 - Le nez est assez timide, la bouche est fraîche, bonne acidité, amertume présente, on a du pamplemousse, c'est finement herbacé avec une légère chaleur en fin de bouche. Un Cotat atypique plutôt délicat qui manque de caractère, d'équilibre et de complexité.

  December 24, 2022 - Christmas Eve Dinner (Restaurant De Lage Vuursche, Lage Vuursche, NL): A difficult bottle four years ago, when I really did not know what to make of this. It has aged well, with a lovely aromatic development (flowers and very mild pyrazines) and a silky texture, but there remains a troublesome bitter note at its core - particularly present on the finish.

  January 27, 2022 - Loire night: Wow an experienced taster guessed this as a Vatan. My first time trying a Cotat white and I was also very impressed. Typical Sauvignon Blanc nose, very aromatic with some green fruits. Some chalkiness with high acid, a driven finish. Some thought it was a bit thin but I thought the minerality being at the forefront worked well. Very youthful still.
