Le Poste's cool microclimate and limestone soil make it one of Saint Cosme's most structured, aromatic, and mineral intense wines of the estate. This wine always walks a knife's edge of power and finesse thanks to its deep fruit and precise structure. The wine features aromas and flavors of iodine, violet, pepper, and ash.
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.

Monster in scale and depth, with a brooding core of dark fruit, spices and incense wrapped around a spine of molten iron. Displays power and ripeness, with an attractive, savory contrast of smoke and a salty tobacco edge to its black currant. There’s a rush of cedar polish on the rock-solid finish, which shows impressive finesse for such a weighty frame. Give this time to fully reveal itself. Best from 2027 through 2042. 24 cases imported.
