Daniel Chotard is a small producer whose family has been farming the slopes of Crézancy-en-Sancerre, where flint meets clay and the famous Kimmeridgian limestone, for well over 200 years.
Daniel farms organically and typically harvests his grapes later than his neighbours, resulting in less of the acidity that is so typical of the Sauvignon Blanc grape.
These wines are complex, lush and long with a lengthy mineral component imbued by the limestone soil.
Aged on lees, Daniel’s wines are much rounder than most Sancerres and have excellent texture.
