Château de Saint Cosme Gigondas 2022

Wine Spectator : 94 Points

(2/28/2025) Expressive notes of pomegranate and raspberry show pretty lavender perfume alongside wafts of apple wood smoke and black pepper. Fine yet substantial tannins hold a firm grip, with graphite power building. Concentrated and firmly structured on a sleek, powerful frame. Tightly wound, this will be even better with a few years in the cellar. Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah and Cinsault. Best from 2026 through 2037. 930 cases imported.

Wine Enthusiast : 94 Points

(9/1/2025) Dense and complex, this wine opens with dark cherry, olive, licorice, clove, violet, and a firm mineral edge. On the palate, vibrant acidity refreshes, as fresh olive notes evolve into a structured minerality, revealing soft plum, sage, bay leaf, and stone that lingers through the finish. Built for the long haul, it is approachable now with a proper decant.

Wine Advocate : 93 Points

(10/10/2024) The 2022 Gigondas from Château de Saint Cosme is showing particularly well today, evoking a fresh, complex and fruity bouquet of pepper, violet, crushed strawberries and menthol mingled with delicate notes of garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, delicate and textured, it's perfectly balanced with good depth at the core and a long, mineral and ethereal finish. It's a blend of 70% Grenache Noir, 15% Mourvèdre, 14% Syrah and 1% Cinsault that matured 20% in new barrels, 50% in used barrels and the rest in concrete tanks. This is a wine that could age gracefully over the next decade. Drink Date: 2024 - 2040.
