Montesquieu Likes this wine: 96 points
March 29, 2024 - Final bottle of a case that finishes on top. I've consistently agreed over the years with Wine Spectator's initial praise and rating of this wine. This has shined in both its primary and now tertiary evolution. We drink tons of Gigondas because it's Mrs. Montesquieu's favorite. This 2010 St. Cosme is easily the best entry, <$40 Gigondas we've had from St Cosme, Santa Duc, St. Damien, and many others over the years. Rich, savory, even meaty in its older age. Plum, overripe strawberry, fruit cobbler. Terrific.

March 29, 2024 - A tad bit less rustic than your typical Gigondas. I would hope so given the price. This fared way better on day two. Keep at least five more years. Southern Rhone all the way.

March 20, 2024 - Amazingly vibrant and fresh for such a big wine, developing some delicious dark cherry flavours given further interest by some pleasing tannins. Warming and spicy this developed a velvety mouthfeel. Profound and complex the finish was lingering. At 14 years old this is still showing very well. CHP 92 pts

Inconsistent with previous note. It was in a dumb phase.
Elegant balanced complex with intensity and finish. Fruit mineral and tertiary notes. In the Zone Drink Up.2 people found this helpful Comments (3)
