This is why I love Northern Rhone Syrah, this is bonkers good and so young but showing very well. As good as it is now I see it getting even better in 7-10+ years as time chips away and starts to impart more space in the layers.of complexity that ring this wines personality.
Dark red currants, blackberry, mother rock granite, piquant meat, smoke, and charcoal embers. Perfect structure, ripe and firm tannin and great acidity. Ferral, wild and unhinged this is what drinking great wine is all about!

Had pumpkin ravioli and #viognier for breakfast, cause it's a beautiful god damn day to be an American. #funday #brunchwine #saintcosme #notanalcoholic — 9 years ago

Medium to medium + intensity. Orange blossom and rind, flowers, pear and herb. Palate was rich and alcohol was felt. Medium complexity. Medium acid. Touch of phenolic bitterness. Well put together. Needs food. #saintcosme #rhoneblanc #rhonevalley #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago
