This Crozes-Hermitage can indeed be enjoyed in its youth, so enchanting is its fruity character, but it will become more complex after a few years in the cellar! More info

This Crozes-Hermitage has its origins in the Serine grape, grown in granite soil. Château Saint-Cosme favours vinification with a destemmed harvest. This wine can of course be appreciated in its youth since it has such a fruity character, but it will become wonderfully complex after a few years in the cellar. It gives off tertiary notes of blackcurrant, pepper and incense.

    Information about domain Saint Cosme

    The historic Château de Saint Cosme in Gigondas has the site of a Gallo-Roman winery, complete with vats cut into the rock, in its grounds. The property has been in the same family since the end of the 15th century and 15 generations of wine makers have followed on from each other. Today, the vineyard comprises 22 hectares of old vines (more than 60 years old) and yields low volumes of grapes. The vines enjoy a cool climate that gives the wines their balance, finesse and freshness. The domain was following the principles of organic farming as far back as the 1970s and today it avoids herbicides, chemical fertilisers, pesticides and synthetic products completely. The Château supplements its own output with a négoce business, working with winegrowers who are passionate about their trade. Wines from this domain are fairly representative of their appellation and have plenty of depth.
