CHATEAU DE SAINT COSME GIGONDAS LE CLAUX is a distinguished red wine from the Rhône Valley in France. It features a robust flavor profile characterized by dark fruits, spices, and subtle earthy notes, typical of the Grenache and Syrah blends from this renowned region.
This wine pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes such as roasted lamb, beef stew, and grilled meats. It also complements rich cheeses and hearty vegetable dishes, enhancing the overall dining experience.
Entirely crafted from Grenache Noir, some of which was planted in 1880, the 2021 Gigondas le Claux from Chateau de Saint Cosme reveals a delicate, perfumed bouquet of violet, licorice, dark berries and smoke. Medium to full-bodied, layered and rich in texture, it's framed by bright acids and a tense texture that segues into an ethereal, long and delicately peppery finish. In the context of the vintage, this is a great effort.
This is very good - ripe, with the fruit to stand up to the oak. Good acidity, balanced alcohol, some length too. A touch of caramel on the finish, and cinnamon sugar. Very old vines, all whole-cluster fermented in concrete, no destemming, indigenous yeasts and matured 100% in barriques; one-third new, one-third second-use, one-third third-use.
