Chateau de Saint Cosme was awarded "The Best European Producer of the Year" by Sommelier Wine Awards in 2012. The wine Les Deux Albions was featured in The Drops of God (Kami no Shizuku), the very popular Japanese manga series about wine.
In the heart of the appellation Gigondas, the Chateau de Saint Cosme is an exceptional estate. Saint Cosme strives to be and remain a small producer, supported by the idea of becoming a negociant which would work with the spirit of a vigneron using ancient methods.
Saint Cosme is dedicated to express at their best the extraordinary potential of the terriors combinated with the old vines - Le Poste, Le Claux and Hominis Fides.
