Description

One of the Rhone Valley's most respected winemakers, Louis Barruol makes fabulous, classical wines across the region. Chateau de Saint Cosme, nestled in the southern Rhone appellation of Gigondas, sings of history. With its average of 60-year-old vines, over 500 years of Barruol family ownership, and 14th-generation winemaker Louis Barruol at the helm, you cannot dispute their establishment.

Louis makes a range of wines, influenced by biodynamic principles. From fantastic bang for your buck Cotes du Rhone (look for plenty of forest fruits and a graphitey nose), to the serious, bold and complex Gigondas single plots, there's something for every palate. Not stopping at Rhone, Louis' passion for terroir took him to New York, where he grows Pinot Noir and Riesling in the Finger Lakes.

The Saint Cosme estate includes 15 hectares of very old vines with an average age of 60 years. They produce low yields of around 27hl/ha of concentrated juice. The terroir is apparently homogeneous but it’s actually geologically very diverse as the Dentelles de Montmirail provides complexity. Saint Cosme is exceptionally located at the crossing of two geological faults, which is very rare, resulting in an extraordinary diversity of soils. The microclimate is cool and late ripening which produces Gigondas that are both powerful and refined at the same time. The ancient know-how that has been passed down through the generations combined with the organic viticulture allows these old vines to truly express this exceptional terroir

An exquisite Gigondas with depth, mellowness and a saline freshness offering nuances of strawberry, violet, iodine and liquorice and an everlasting finish.
