Three generations later—led by Pascal Gitton, wife Denise, and daughter Chanel—the family works 27-33 hectares across Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, and just 7 minutes northeast into Coteaux du Giennois, a rugged 233-hectare AOC hugging the Loire's banks. This extension of Sancerre's Kimmeridgian flint and clay-limestone grows Pinot Noir and Gamay on south-facing slopes, echoing Gevrey-Chambertin's iron-rich earth but with Loire's wild freshness. The \"Taureau\" (Bull) vineyard in Pougny delivers old-vine Pinot (90%+) with a dash of Gamay from deep clay-flint plunging into that Côte de Nuits twin soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eThe 2020 Rouge ferments in stainless with short skin contact from hand-picked ancient vines, rests in neutral oak, and bottles unfiltered for pure site expression (~13% ABV). Warm days and cool nights gave ripe cherry-strawberry depth plus bright tension—graphite earth, white pepper, and herbs that drink now through 2028. Gitton's 80-year Loire legacy meets Burgundy soils at fraction of the price, making \"Taureau\" a red Sancerre neighbor that punches like village Gevrey without the markup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-editorial font-bold mb-2 mt-4 [.has-inline-images_\u0026amp;]:clear-end text-lg first:mt-0 md:text-lg [hr+\u0026amp;]:mt-4\" id=\"why-youll-love-it\"\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"marker:text-quiet list-disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eGevrey soils, Loire lift: Kimmeridgian flint-clay mirrors Côte de Nuits iron, but stays lighter and brighter than Burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e45-60 yr-old Pinot+Gamay vines yield extraordinary red fruit depth and graphite complexity at half village red price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e2020's ripe tension drinks stellar right now and will cellar through 2030 with grace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-editorial font-bold mb-2 mt-4 [.has-inline-images_\u0026amp;]:clear-end text-lg first:mt-0 md:text-lg [hr+\u0026amp;]:mt-4\" id=\"how-to-serve-it\"\u003eHow to Serve It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"marker:text-quiet list-disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eDecant for 30 minutes and serve between \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e58-65°F in Burgundy stems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"py-0 my-0 prose-p:pt-0 prose-p:mb-2 prose-p:my-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:pt-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:mb-2 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;p]:my-0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003ePairings with grilled, poached or hot-smoked salmon, Poulet Roti avec pommes frites , charcuterie, herb crusted pork tenderloin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SommSelect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45073550540854,"sku":"SOMM2604-CHA20COT-750","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/3628\/8822\/files\/2020ChanelGitton_CoteauxGiennoisRougeTaureau.png?v=1774026175","url":"https:\/\/sommselect.com\/products\/2020-chanel-gitton-coteaux-glennois-rouge-taureausomm2604-cha20cot-750","provider":"SommSelect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
