The estate has been growing wine since the 15th Century, and its Grenache-based wines made under the Gigondas appellation are considered some of the region's best. The estate consists of three low-yielding vineyards totalling 15 hectares (37 acres) around Gigondas. Each of these – Le Poste, Le Claux and Hominus Fides – has a corresponding single-vineyard wine which forms the top tier of Château de Saint Cosme. These top wines are aged in a combination of first-, second- and third-fill barriques. In addition to this, there are two other wines made from these vineyards: a generic Gigondas wine, and Valbelle, which is made from older vines. The Le Poste vineyard also provides a Côtes du Rhône Blanc made from Clairette, which is fermented and aged in old oak barrels. Since 1997, Château de Saint Cosme has made a range of wines from outside of Gigondas on a negociant basis. These are vinified at carefully selected partner wineries and are aged in casks selected by Saint Cosme. The range includes wines from Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côte Rôtie, Saint-Joseph, Crozes-Hermitage and Condrieu, as well as several Côtes du Rhône wines and the Little James range of Vin de France red and Vin de Pays d'Oc white. Saint Cosme is the oldest estate in the region; it lies on the site of a Gallo-Roman villa which likely had its own vineyard, although the first documentary evidence of wine-growing on the property was in 1416.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-15T15:52:17-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-13T12:10:35-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","Other_Wine","Producer_Château de Saint Cosme","Region_Rhone","RK110324","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Southern Rhone Red Blend"],"price":44995,"price_min":44995,"price_max":44995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44481137377418,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2020 | Château de Saint Cosme | Gigondas Le Poste","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":44995,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/58_885214e8-f3f7-45bd-8356-5208cc838649.png?v=1710346360"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/58_885214e8-f3f7-45bd-8356-5208cc838649.png?v=1710346360","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2020 | Château de Saint Cosme | Gigondas Le Poste at CaskCartel.com","id":26465342816394,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.333,"height":408,"width":136,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/58_885214e8-f3f7-45bd-8356-5208cc838649.png?v=1710346360"},"aspect_ratio":0.333,"height":408,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/58_885214e8-f3f7-45bd-8356-5208cc838649.png?v=1710346360","width":136}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2020 | Château de Saint Cosme | Gigondas Le Poste\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA quintessential expression of this terroir, it offers an incredible array of darker fruits, garrigue, pepper, and graphite, and it's medium to full-bodied, incredibly pure, and flawlessly balanced on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Château de Saint Cosme\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWE\u003c\/span\u003e | 95  \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWS\u003c\/span\u003e | 96\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2020\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Southern Rhone Red Blend\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Rhone\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA quintessential expression of this terroir, it offers an incredible array of darker fruits, garrigue, pepper, and graphite, and it's medium to full-bodied, incredibly pure, and flawlessly balanced on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #222223;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #222223;\"\u003eReviews:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #9f250d;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #9f250d;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWine Enthusiast:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e From vines planted in 1963, this expression of Grenache is powerful and intense.
