Pascal Cotat Rosé Chavignol Sancerre 2024

This is not a poolside rosé. Pascal makes it from old-vine Pinot Noir, harvested late and fermented in old wood, the same way he handles his whites. The result is a structured, saline, mineral-driven rosé with serious frame and a long finish. Drink it now with food, or hold it for a few years and watch it deepen. One of the more uncompromising rosés you can buy in NYC right now, and one of the only ones that rewards cellaring.
