Winemaker Notes
The final blend is explosive with an intense colour, a meaty texture and it's more about eating a wine than drinking it. When someone loves his work, mother nature usually gives back. The story of our Côtes du Rhône is as simple as that. Smoked meat, raspberry, humid forest, black pepper.

Chateau de Saint Cosme is the leading estate of Gigondas and produces the appellation’s benchmark wines. 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.
