Hominis Fides is typically the most elegant of Château de Saint Cosme's three single-vineyard Gigondas. "Grenache grown in the sandy soil produces marvelously textured wines as well as extremely refined tannins; a very special and stylish wine," says Louis Barruol. The wine features aromas and flavors of pepper, truffle, graphite, and smoke.
Grenache is the pale-colored, red-fruited, and potpourri-scented red grape variety of the southern Rhône and can be paired with both rustic and sophisticated dishes. Full-bodied Grenache-based wines are ideal with stews, braises, and grilled meats, while lighter versions can work well with dark fish and tomato-based dishes such as ratatouille.

Sturdy and sleek at the same time, with concentrated waves of black currant and plum encased in a serious robe of solid iron. This is just beginning to unfurl, revealing notes of cinnamon, nutmeg and singed rosemary, all powered by lifted acidity for great tension through the long, well-built finish. Cellar this to reveal its full potential. Best from 2027 through 2042. 39 cases imported.
