Cos d'Estournel

Case Format: 3x150cl

Château Cos d’Estournel is a winery in the Saint Éstèphe appelation of the Bordeaux region which is a Deuxième Grand Cru Classé. The wine produced here are classified as one of the five Saint Éstèphe in the 1855 ranking. With an average age of 45 years, and a surface of approximately 90 hectares it is one of the biggest Cru Classé in the Médoc. During the harvest, grapes are picked up step by step and 2 vines next to each other are not necessary vintage at the same day. Moreover, the Asian architecture of the Château made him one of the most beautiful winery in France.

G d’Estournel evokes the wonderment of an explorer returned home from the Far East, his soul replete with luminous memories of majestic Indian elephants, shimmering Burmese gold, the finest of Nepalese silks, the warm glow of Vietnamese lanterns…
A harmony of delectable fruit, a whiff of incense, the sheen of a case inlaid with mother of pearl… and memories of these refined, opulent delights suddenly spring back to life.

Jeb Dunnuck

Coming from the Médoc, the 2019 G DEstournel is a rock-solid effort that has lots to love. Giving up pure, ripe black cherry fruit as well as tobacco and scorched earth notes, its medium-bodied, has a round, nicely balanced mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and nicely integrated acidity. Its beautifully done and well worth drinking any time over the coming 10-12 years.

Well judged, carefully-extracted and balanced, with blackcurrant fruit and a silky, easy-going texture. Its an easy value recommendation, and a great job in a vintage that was not a slam dunk at all levels.
