  • Description

    This has a ripe strawberry, blackberry almost floral nose although there is a slight ephemeral quality to it. Lacks the dimension of say the ’90 or the ’00. Traits of raspberry, scorched earth and a touch of cedar/mint emerging with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied, good acidity, quite rounded and harmonious.

    Château Cos d'Estournel is a prestigious wine estate located in the Saint-Estèphe appellation of Bordeaux, France. Established in the early 19th century by Louis-Gaspard d'Estournel, the estate is renowned for its grand architectural style, including the iconic pagodas that distinguish its winery. Covering approximately 100 hectares, the vineyard benefits from a unique terroir of gravel and clay soils, ideal for cultivating Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. Château Cos d'Estournel consistently produces exceptional Second Growth (Deuxième Cru) wines, as classified in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, known for their power, elegance, and remarkable aging potential. The wines are celebrated for their rich, layered flavors of dark fruit, spices, and subtle earthy notes, making Château Cos d'Estournel a benchmark for quality and sophistication in Bordeaux winemaking.
