Cos d'Estournel 2eme Cru Classe

Cos D’Estournel 2013

Cos d'Estournel

Case Format: 12x75cl

Max score: 94.0

The leading estate in Saint-Estèphe, the Deuxième Grand Cru Classé Cos d’Estournel is favoured for creating deliciously full-bodied and highly tannic wines, that once developed, have the ability to rival some of the top estates in the neighbouring Pauillac. The typical Cos d’Estournel blend usually includes Cabernet Sauvignon (c.60%), Merlot (c.38%) and Cabernet Franc (c.2%). Named after its nineteenth-century owner, Louis-Gaspard d’Estournel, who in his lifetime built the incongruous Orientalist estate that stands out within the Bordeaux landscape, Cos D’Estournel is as infamous for its Château, as it is for its characteristically distinct and sensuous first wine.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown

The 2013 Cos d’Estournel has a medium garnet color, with a touch of brick. Notes of dried sage, new leather, tobacco leaf, and cedar lead on the nose, giving way to wafts of olives and dusty soil. The medium-bodied palate is chewy and a tad tart, with a firm, rugged finish.

Theres attractive upfront fruit here, with light tannins that avoid excessive extraction. The nose is subdued, and the palate also lacks some vigour and flair. Rather chunky and drab on the finish, this is solid enough but hardly the equal of better vintages from here.
