    Dense, brooding and very dark, with a block of baker's chocolate at the core, studded with linzer torte, steeped blackberry and roasted fig notes. There's lots of espresso and ganache as well, but still this has rapier, chalky cut through the finish, with alder, juniper and bay giving the flesh the angles it needs for balance. Stunning length. Best from 2015 through 2035.

    The 2010 Gigondas Le Claux, which comes from yellow clay and Jurassic limestone, and is again 100% Grenache, possesses a crushed wet rock component, giving it minerality, followed by a dense purple color, massive extract, huge tannins, and a layered, powerful finish. This wine will need at least 7-8 years of cellaring and should prove to be a Gigondas capable of lasting 25-30 years. Range: 92-94+

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.
