Saint Cosme Chateauneuf Du Pape 2015 (750ML)

94 WS / 93 WA

A focused, slightly taut style, with a good dose of singed cedar and alder framing the core of red currant, plum and bitter cherry paste flavors. Lots of bay leaf, rosemary and sanguine accents fill in on the finish, which keeps a cedary edge. For fans of the old-school style. Best from 2020 through 2035. - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator

Sourced from three lieux-dits (including La Crau), Saint Cosme's 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape is a blend of approximately 60% Grenache, 20-25% Mourvèdre and bits and pieces of other varieties. It's full-bodied, rich and spicy, with hints of cumin, licorice, cinnamon and clove all swirling about on the long finish. JC – The Wine Advocate
