"A hidden gem of the vintage, with a strong character. Charming and delicious! ~ Jeb Dunnuck"

"A deep and heady nose, fragrant and vibrant, very expressive with notes of vanilla, milk chocolate, blackcurrant, and flowers. Smooth and succulent, juicy, lively, and expressive on the palate, with beautiful fruity purity and creamy notes, as well as chalky and salty notes. Clean and clear, purified by freshness and hints of blueberry. Well-balanced with a beautiful length on the palate, crisp, almost mellow. Convivial, accessible and very pleasant to drink. Lots of personality." (Decanter 2023) - Delivery in wooden cases is available for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (depending on the country and shipping method selected).

4-star estate (Producers of very high quality, the pride of French vineyards)

About the estate:

The vat room, as spectacular in its own right as the château's pagodas, equipped with vat lifts that allow gravity to be used not only during vinification but also during aging, was used for the first time in 2008. It crowns the estate's considerable efforts to bring this wine to the highest possible level, with the ambition of rivaling the quality of the premier cru classés. The deep gravel soil generally makes it the most full-bodied of the Médoc wines, the most voluptuous in texture, while retaining a finesse and complexity characteristic of its proximity to Lafite. The latest vintages have gained even more in aromatic purity and sincerity of expression. A very aromatic and intense white Bordeaux is produced on the soils of La Goulée, a little further north, and bears the same name.

Rated estate (2021 guide) 2 stars (These very large estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).

About the estate:

Businessman Michel Reybier, who acquired the estate in 2000, has invested heavily in providing Cos d'Estournel with everything it needs to produce the finest wine possible. The construction of one of the world's most advanced wine cellars, designed by architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte, is a prime example of this. Cos has always produced expressive wines with a rather exuberant style. In the early 2000s, it even veered into caricature at times, overshadowing the finesse that the terroir is capable of expressing. Things have now changed, and with its latest vintages, Cos has rediscovered an expression that once again appeals to us.

About wine:

Inviting fruity intensity with aromas of black berries, mint, and licorice. Slightly creamy on the attack, the wine has compact and somewhat smooth tannins that ensure vigor and freshness. A delicious, powerful, and elegant wine that can be enjoyed in its youth. 2026-2037
