Medium- to full-bodied, supple and fleshy, it’s rich without excess, with a layered core of fruit, powdery tannins and a bright, saline finish that lends a sense of energy and poise. As always, it’s a blend of multiple terroirs—limestone, marl and sandy soils—which lend the cuvée both depth and aromatic range. This will offer a great drinking window, but a few years in bottle will only enhance its complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_rating\"\u003e92pts \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\"\u003eVinous\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRipe strawberry, raspberry and orange blossom leap from the glass of the delicious 2023 Gigondas.

Wine has been produced on the site of Saint Cosme since Roman times, evident by the ancient Gallo-Roman vats carved into the limestone below the chateau. The property has been in the hands of Louis Barruol’s family since 1570. Henri and Claude Barruol took over in 1957 and gradually moved Saint Cosme away from the bulk wine business. Henri was one of the first in the region to work organically beginning in the 1970s. Louis Barruol took over from his father in 1992, making a dramatic shift to quality, adding a négociant arm to the business in 1997, and converting to biodynamics in 2010.\u003ca class=\"productPageContentHead_viewAllLink\" aria-label=\"view all Rhône Blends products\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wine.com\/list\/wine\/red-wine\/7155-124-10082\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"prodRec itemPageRR1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prodRec_scroller\" data-rr-placement=\"item_page.rr1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prodRec_scroller\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prodRec_viewportWrap\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prodRec_viewport\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"prodRec_scrollerList\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"scrollerList_item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scrollerList_content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"recProRating\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Winebow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68059100905836,"sku":"3483811000006","price":61.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/3053\/products\/chateau-de-saint-cosme-gigondas-2019-750ml-779610.jpg?v=1691444916","url":"https:\/\/redneckwinecompany.com\/products\/chateau-de-saint-cosme-gigondas-2023-750ml","provider":"Redneck Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
