Château Cos d'Estournel

Château Cos d'Estounel is part of Domaines Michel Reybier, in the Saint-Estèphe appellation, in the Bordeaux region. The Château Cos d'Estounel vineyard currently covers 91 hectares. The vines are planted on the poor gravel soils of the hilltops and on the south-facing slopes. Cabernet Sauvignon (60% of the vineyard) thrives here. On the eastern slopes and hillsides where the limestone bedrock of Saint-Estèphe outcrops, Merlot (40% of the vineyard) thrives.

Winemaking at Château Cos d'Estounel is tailored to the character of each harvest, prioritizing the expression of the Saint-Estèphe terroir. Aging takes place in new merrain oak barrels, which subtly enhance the wine’s aromas and flavors with just the right amount of oak. In the eyes of fine wine connoisseurs, Château Cos d’Estournel has become the archetype of a certain style of virile elegance, where power is combined with grace and smoothness.
