The Côte-Rôtie 2015 from Château de Saint Cosme is a Northern Rhône Syrah from an excellent vintage, capturing both the opulent ripeness of the year and the characteristic savoury intensity of the Côte Brune. This wine is defined by its structural intensity and immense density derived from the highly concentrated 2015 growing season. It presents a deep, near-opaque colour and an intoxicating bouquet. The palate is full-bodied and intensely structured, built on a foundation of powerful, substantial tannins that are nevertheless velvety smooth and perfectly ripe, yielding a profound, long-finishing wine with immense ageing potential.
