The estate and the wine |
|
|
A Second Growth in the 1855 Classification, Château Cos d'Estournel is unquestionably one of Bordeaux's legendary estates. Its flagship wine is a true benchmark—strikingly beautiful, nearly impossible to surpass, and remarkable for its precision and power. Grown on deep gravel soils, it is often the boldest and most opulent wine of the region, yet it retains a finesse and complexity that are hallmarks of its exceptional terroir. |

A standout of the vintage, the 2017 Château Cos d’Estournel Red from Saint-Estèphe reveals captivating layers of blackberries, wild berries, menthol, and spice, all wrapped in a beautifully structured and sharply defined profile. True to the estate's signature style, this vintage captures all its seductive charm—delivering refined texture, silky tannins, and remarkable depth with a smooth, creamy palate. Elegant and elongated on the palate, with vibrant freshness and remarkable persistence, this wine is built for long aging. One can’t help but wish to fast-forward ten years to experience it at its peak. Awarded 98+/100 by Parker. |
