Chateau Cos d’Estournel has a long and distinguished history as a Bordeaux wine property in the St. Estephe appellation classified as a 2nd Growth under the 1855 classification.

Founded by Louis Gaspard d’Estournel in 1811, Cos d’Estournel borders Chateau Lafite and is one of the finest wines of the world. A fundamental symbol, the Estournel Elephant symbolizes Eastern influences on the founder, who shipped his wines to faraway lands 200 years ago. His passion for India earned him the nickname of “Maharajah of Saint-Estèphe.”

Today, this estate is one of the most modern wineries with 84 isothermal, cone-shaped, stainless-steel vats that are unique to Bordeaux.

Grape Blend: 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot

Wow. So intense and spicy with nutmeg, cloves, ink and blackberries. Also asphalt, lead pencil and tobacco. Full-bodied, but at the same time, there’s a real balance giving incredible depth and length. The tannins are all there but are polished as well as firm. Superb structure. A neoclassical Cos, one for long-term aging. Perhaps the best ever. A blend of 61% cabernet sauvignon, 37% merlot, 1% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot. Drink after 2030.
