Saint Cosme - Cotes du Rhone

This 2021 red wine is crafted from 100% Syrah grapes. The grapes are sourced from the stony Villafranchian terraces in the Southern Rhone, France, specifically in the Gard region. These terraces are well - known for vineyards featuring limestone sand, red clay, and pebbles. On the palate, you'll experience dominant flavors of crushed cherry and ripe red plum, complemented by delicate notes of violets, graphite, and a hint of black pepper. It's an ideal pairing for herbed mushroom dishes, enhancing the overall dining experience.

To enjoy this Saint Cosme Cotes du Rhone red wine, simply open the bottle and let it breathe for about 30 minutes to an hour. This will help release its full range of flavors. Pour it into a standard wine glass and take your time to savor the complex taste. When it comes to pairing, as mentioned, it goes great with herbed mushroom dishes, but you can also try it with grilled meats or hearty pasta. Store the unopened bottle in a cool, dark place. Once opened, keep the wine in the refrigerator and consume it within 2 - 3 days to maintain its freshness.
