For dinner at Costes with duck. Vintage not specified on list but 2019 was brought out so it’s got a number of years on its shoulder! Excellent high altitude German style of leanness, acid married to finesse and tightly wound elegance. Perfect with the duck — 18 days ago

This may be my favorite new wine. Simply delicious! I shared a whole case with friends over the course of a few weeks. Cannot get enough, and it is reasonably priced! Languedoc wines are really starting to shine. — 9 years ago
With French cheeses and deserts. Best wine for the price I have tasted in a long time! — 10 years ago
Enticingly smoky nose with a suave palate entry and some funky white pepper. Light bodied enough to dig in to. Alcohol juts out a bit on the finish, but this is another Languedoc surprise. Cinsault can be quite elegant (in comparison to other southern rhone red varietals). Makes me want to taste pure Cinsault. — 11 years ago
BYOB event for the Commanderie des Costes du Rhône at Temple Court. Light in color but a fragrant nose with good acidity and tertiary flavors on the palate. Enjoyed with roasted duck breast. — 3 years ago
Beautiful wine. Has a big presence but is well balanced and shows good structure. On the palate, it is dense and complex with currents of anise, loam, and graphite enriching a dark-fruited foreground. Displays noticeable earth and herbal qualities in an otherwise fruit-forward package. Possesses a long and balanced finish. Very well done. — 7 years ago
Much better on the first day — 10 years ago
Excellent wine, full bodied and fruity.
Without sulfites.

For dinner at Costes. Quite good Langrein but probably needs more years. Well balanced with good fruit and earthiness but quite closed in. Had it again next evening and it’d opened up — 18 days ago
