Saint-Cosme (Côte-Rôtie)
Meaty, fresh, bright, peppery and lush, with a core of dark, sweet cherries, raspberries, licorice, smoke and flowers. There is a softness to the tannins and a freshness to the layers of spicy kirsch in the finish. Another 5 - 7 years or so will really round things out here. For an ever-increasingly expensive appellation, this offers good value in the Northern Rhone. 3,695 Views Tasted Nov 24, 2019 |

Saint-Cosme (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
Fresh, peppery, polished and expressive, the wild red fruits and spice mixture comes through from start to finish on the nose and on the palate. This is a solid effort in a mixed vintage. 2,950 Views Tasted Jun 23, 2016 |

Saint-Cosme (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
Garrigue and thyme, with fresh black raspberries open the wine. On the palate, this medium bodied wine shows its elegance and charm early. 4,261 Views Tasted Sep 8, 2015 |

Saint-Cosme (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
Full bodied, lusciously textured, peppery, black cherry, plum, licorice, smoke and fresh herbs. This is good now and should be even better with another 2 years or so of age. 2,753 Views Tasted Mar 6, 2018 |

Saint-Cosme (Côte-Rôtie)
Really stylish expression of Cote Rotie, with flowers, cherry, black raspberries, wet earth, forest leaf and olive notes. Medium/full bodied, fresh and vibrant, soft and polished, this should age well for at least another decade. 4,256 Views Tasted Mar 13, 2018 |

Saint-Cosme (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
Sporting a nose of kirsch, fennel and garrigue, this forward styled, plush wine is already drinking in the sweet spot. 4,678 Views Tasted May 29, 2013 |

Saint-Cosme (Côte-Rôtie)
Forward in style, lushly textured and with a complex set of aromatics set off by licorice, vanilla, black cherry liqueur, jam, pepper and fresh herbs, this is one of the few remaining value wines from Cote Rotie. 3,109 Views Tasted Dec 1, 2013 |

Saint-Cosme (Côte-Rôtie)
What a charmer, with its kirsch, earth, black raspberry and floral personality, lush textures and long, fresh, sweet, dark red berry and spicy finish. 3,797 Views Tasted Mar 15, 2013 |

Saint-Cosme (Côte-Rôtie)
Fresh jammy strawberry, garrigue, cherry liqueur, pepper, mint, smoke and graphite. In the mouth, the wine offers silky, rich, earthy, ripe, sweet strawberry, dried cherry and spice. There is no sensation of heat or jam. It's drinking well today. 3,828 Views Tasted Jul 15, 201203 St. Cosme Cote Rote rocks the moment it's popped and poured. Ripe blackberry, pepper, blueberry, bacon fat and jammy black cherries make their mark. This fat textured wine ends with a long jammy, fruit filled finish. What this wine lacks in elegance, it makes it up in spades with sex appeal. 3,210 Views Tasted Sep 1, 2010 |

Saint-Cosme (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
Fully mature, and probably at peak, the wine offers lush textured, richness and an earthy mix of herbs, black pepper, smoke and ripe, fresh, sweet cherries and black raspberry. There is no reason to age this any longer. 2,417 Views Tasted Mar 7, 2018 |

Saint-Cosme (Côte-Rôtie)
My last bottle of this beauty was consumed a few years ago. Luckily, a friend brought a bottle last night, and while it has dropped a bit of depth and freshness, the wine is now quite sensual in nature, with sweet, ripe, peppery, kirsch and red plums, silky tannins and a red pit fruit filled finish. Nothing lasts forever, so if a have a bottle or two around, you should not hold on any longer. 3,283 Views Tasted Feb 26, 2019Splash decanting was all this needed to bring out the black cherry, balsamic, bacon fat, licorice and fresh herb notes in the wine. Fully mature, the wine has shifted its fresh, acidic youthful profile and is now delivering silky, lush, black raspberries, with a mint accent. There is still ample freshness, spice and vibrancy here, but there is no real reason to age this any further. I have 3 bottles remaining from the original case and I'll probably finish them over the next 5-7 years. 2,563 Views Tasted Aug 10, 2016Sweet ripe cherries, all spice, truffle, stone, fresh herbs and sizzling bacon fat brought this perfume to life! With silky textures, depth, purity of fruit, freshness and a long ripe, dark cherry finish, this Cote Rotie wine was a pleasure to drink. This is at the perfect place to start tasting this wine. 3,935 Views Tasted Jun 9, 2012 |
