Chateau de Saint Cosme Gigondas “Le Poste” 2022

Description

100% Grenache

Château de Saint Cosme Gigondas Le Poste is from a 1-hectare terraced vineyard that sits near the chapel of Saint Cosme, a short uphill climb from the winery. The maximum elevation is 280 meters, 140 meters above the Gigondas valley floor. The terraces and elevation make it necessary to plow the vineyard by horse. Only six barrels are produced each year.

A floral, elegant bouquet of iris, violet, pepper, licorice and dark cherries, it’s full-bodied, tense and crystalline with a sappy, layered texture framed by sweet, velvety tannins, concluding with a long, delicately peppery finish. 15.5% ABV
