WINE DESCRIPTION

Château de Saint Cosme Little James' Basket Press Blanc is a delightful white wine produced by the renowned winery Château de Saint Cosme. This wine comes from the Rhône Valley appellation and is made from a blend of different grape varieties, including Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscat. The vineyards where the grapes are grown are located on steep slopes, which provide excellent drainage and exposure to the sun. The winemaking process involves using a traditional basket press, which gently extracts the juice from the grapes, resulting in a wine that is fresh, vibrant, and full of flavor. This wine is known for its crisp acidity, floral aromas, and fruity notes, making it a perfect choice for any occasion.

ORIGINS

Winery: Château de Saint Cosme

Region: Languedoc-Roussillon

Languedoc-Roussillon is an expansive wine region in the south of France stretching from Nîmes and Montpellier east along the Mediterranean coast and inland to the Spanish border. It is the largest wine-producing region in the country, with a long and rich history of winemaking. The Languedoc-Roussillon region has been producing wine since the Roman Empire. It was the first region in France to produce sparkling wines, and it has been a major producer of fortified wines since the Middle Ages. In the 19th century, the region was known for its sweet wines, but in the 20th century, it began to focus on producing dry wines.
