The rating for 2019 Chateau de St Cosme Le Claux Gigondas is 97 points from Jeff Leve and the tasting note - Black raspberries, flowers, and thyme notes are all over the place on the nose and palate. The wine offers intensity, richness, and multiple layers of ripe, spicy, red fruits and herbs. The rating for 2015 Chateau de St Cosme Valbelle Gigondas is 94 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2015 Gigondas Valbelle is 90% Grenache, blended from five parcels planted more than 80 years ago. Like all of the Saint Cosme Gigondas, it's classically built, with enough tannin to support a decade or more of aging. Plummy yet fresh, it's dark and velvety, with a sexy, silky finish. The rating for 2014 Chateau de St Cosme Le Claux Gigondas is 94 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - One of the wines of the vintage from Gigondas, and I think the most complete of the three single vineyard releases from Saint Cosme, the 2014 Gigondas le Claux sports a medium ruby, semi-transparent color to go with a Pinot Noir-like bouquet of camphor, sweet cherries, dried flowers, forest floor and lots of minerality. Rich, medium to full-bodied, layered and with a terrific mid-palate and core of fruit, it won't be the longest-lived example of this cuvee, yet my money's on it drinking beautifully for at least another 8-10 years.
