Château de Saint-Cosme
Le Poste Gigondas Grenache
Terrific. Such a gorgeous wine of complexity and profundity with each flavor profile complementing the other. Redolent in the extreme, heavy in fruit and spices: Ripe red berries, cherry, pomegranate, and candied strawberry. The palate has a freshness to it, while remaining wise and powerful. Cherry cola and cacao, raspberry and jasmine. There is a gentle tannic structure and medium acidity that finishes in a smooth and lasting vibrancy.

Mar 4th, 2021Deep lurid ruby. Highly fragrant suggestions of ripe red berries, cherry preserves, exotic spices and candied flowers are accompanied by a smoky mineral element that builds steadily with air. Smooth and seamless on the palate, offering intense black raspberry, cherry cola, spicecake and candied lavender flavors that convey a suave mix of power and delicacy. Closes smooth, gently tannic and impressively long, leaving sappy red fruit and floral pastille notes behind. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, February 2020)

Another knockout from Saint Cosme. A bit more exotic than the Hominis Fides - seductive jasmine, pomegranate, white pepper, and anise flavors. Oily and salty.
