November 8, 2023 - Still needed air. Last glas after 3 h was the best !! Has years to go. Lovely big chewy grenache. No heat and not too much ! Lovely

November 6, 2021 - My favorite cuvée from St Cosme. This is a serious spice box right now. Garrigue, and incense like you’re inside an orthodox church. A bit more acidic than Hominis Fides (tried in parallel at same time, same vintage). Two thumbs up.

June 30, 2019 - Soft, elegant, refined, delicious and sadly our last ‘06 Le Poste. Cherry, garrigue and spice. A Rhône flavor profile but Burgundian in style.

February 4, 2019 - Had this as a barrel sample at the winery in 2007. Now first bottle of 6.
Started right from the beginning. Poured me a glass with coravin and it was singing. Second glass better. Then i opend the bottle and wolfed down this juice without decanting. Smooth, silky , red fruits, no heat, lively freshness and good finish. A few more years will help the herbs to come in front. Just lovely . 94 + Merci Monsieur Barroul !!! -

December 25, 2017 - Excellent pairing on Christmas Eve with rack of lamb. Soft, smooth and feminine. Red fruit, anise and a touch of spice. Still has legs but I do not see much upside from here.
