It is remarkably fresh and finessed given the sun and warmth of the southern Rhône. The unique micro-climate combined with 60-year-old vines and traditional winemaking make Château de Saint Cosme Gigondas the benchmark wine of the appellation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrenache is the pale-colored, red-fruited, and potpourri-scented red grape variety of the southern Rhône and can be paired with both rustic and sophisticated dishes. Full-bodied Grenache-based wines are ideal with stews, braises, and grilled meats, while lighter versions can work well with dark fish and tomato-based dishes such as ratatouille.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Reviews\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e94 points James Suckling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"A driven, focused, structured and energetic Gigondas red, showing blackberries, dark plums, licorice and baking spices. Full-bodied with sinewy tannins. It’s pulpy and lively, the crunchy purple-berry character lifted by dried herbs and peppercorns. Long, flavorful finish. From organically grown grapes.

A bitter mineral flash provides contrast, with mesquite, incense and singed garrigue on the lush finish. A spine of iron brings structure and drives the impressive length. There’s a lot to love.

Immediately captivating and forward, this red Gigondas is a pure delight, delivering ripe red and black fruits with spicy tones across the full-bodied palate, neatly framed by polished tannins. It closes out with a dash of pomegranate.

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.\" (10\/2025)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e90-93 points Jeb Dunnuck\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The 2023 Gigondas will unquestionably be outstanding, with a classic red and black fruited, peppery, Provençal profile as well as medium to full-bodied richness and depth. I love its purity, and it has ripe tannins and terrific balance.\" (12\/2024)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"St.-Cosme","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43131702018272,"sku":"107904","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/thumbme_157d7664-5186-4ddf-b28e-9c258c63ac02.jpg?v=1663888949","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/st-cosme-gigondas-2020-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
