Saint Cosme Saint-Joseph 2002


Saint Cosme Saint-Joseph 2002

Had this last night as part of a dinner party where we got through about 2 bottles per person; as a result of which I've spent most of today feeling as though I'm suffering the wrath of God - ugh! The wine which was the highlight of the night was the Saint Cosme 2002 Saint-Joseph. This was a Christmas present from my parents, purchased from Haslemere Cellar. A quick google fails to find any of the same year for sale online but there is plenty of more recent years. The wine had lots of black fruit, spice and pepper, with a little bit of leathery notes starting to come through. Worked perfectly with a great steak, but to be honest I'd happily have drunk this by itself.
