Producer Information

We have been buying wines from St Cosme for around 10 years for our Rhone En Primeur campaign. One of the most celebrated wineries in the Rhone (indeed the whole of France) they have always been a big hit with our customers. The winery dates back to 1490 and they have some of the oldest vines in the Southern Rhone. In 2007 this already highly rated winery hit a new level with Parker gracing them with a very rare perfect 100 point score. They are now a truly Iconic producer but what makes them so admirable is that Louis Barruol (owner and winemaker) treats all the wines with the same care, technical precision and artistry so whether you are drinking the basic Cotes du Rhone or Gigondas 'Hominis Fides', you are in for a vinous treat. To our mind these are the best wines in Gigondas displaying aromatic fireworks you just don't get anywhere else in the Rhone.
