2023 Gigondas "Hominis Fides", Château de Saint Cosme
This single vineyard old vine Grenache is grown on Miocene limestone. There is structure and power yet depth and charm - the oldest vines date back to 1902. This is saline, delineated, aristocratic with notes of pencil lead, blueberry and ash. There is an effortless intensity here with everything that seems so well balanced. Extremely fine.
