Gigondas Château de Saint Cosme 2023 75 cl.

Rhone – France

Saint Cosme is the standard-bearer of Gigondas and a true benchmark for the appellation. In the glass it shows a deep violet hue with bright highlights. The nose brims with black fruits and dried herbs; the palate is intense, layering ripe blackberry, fig, licorice, violets and a touch of charcoal on the finish. The aftertaste is long and remarkably fresh, carried by a fine mineral edge.

This is a superb Gigondas shaped by a unique microclimate, old vines of around 60 years, and traditional winemaking. The estate sits in the heart of Gigondas, farming 15 hectares under the shadow of the Dentelles de Montmirail, which confers a cooler microclimate than the rest of the commune.

The blend combines Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault. Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented as whole clusters using only indigenous yeasts. Maturation follows for about two months: 20% in new barrels, 50% in used barrels and 30% in concrete tanks. The wine is bottled without filtration to preserve texture, purity and a vivid sense of place.
