Saint Cosme Cotes du Rhone le Poste Blanc 2022 (750ML)

92 VM / 91 WA

The delicious 2022 Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc Le Poste shines with fragrant blossom, lemon flesh, yellow apple and a nutty white almond complexity. Mediumbodied at most, the white 2022 Le Poste offers good flavor concentration and finishes with a discrete phenolic bite on the elongated finale. -- Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous Media

A delicate, spicy bouquet of white flowers, pear and white peach introduces the 2022 Le Poste, a moderately weighted, enveloping and round white Côtes-du-Rhône. Its juicy texture is complemented by bright acids, leading to a long, delicate finish with subtle almond notes. During a blind tasting, it could easily surprise many guests with its finesse and complexity. - YC, Wine Advocate

The tradition of white wines at Saint Cosme dates back aeons. A tasting sheet from the year 1718 mentions more whites than reds. When my father arrived at Saint Cosme in 1957, there were more whites than reds in the stock of bottles.
