2010 Château Cos d'Estournel 14th Anniversary Limited Edition Case

The former owner and namesake Louis Gaspard d'Estournel was known as the Maharajah of Saint-Estèphe. He decorated the castle in Indian style, gave grand parties and lived beyond his means. In 1852 he was completely destitute and had to sell his domain. He died a year later. Cos d'Estournel is perhaps the Chateau with the most new and advanced technique for making wine. From the harvest to the maturing of the bottles, everything is carefully monitored and carried out with the greatest care. For example, they have managed to create a vinification process in which the wine is transported without pumps. All actions are carried out by gravity. In 1855, the Chateau obtained the 2nd Grand Cru Classé status

Cos d'Estournel introduces a series of collector's boxes that are released as an annual rendezvous. Each box contains a vintage that has just reached the beginning of its best time to be enjoyed. This is the case of Cos d'Estournel 2010, which has reached a magnificent age, the first ideal moment for consumption. Excellent conservation with fourteen years of bottle aging at the château.

The box is made from Paulownia, an environmentally friendly tree that absorbs ten times more carbon dioxide than traditional varieties and produces four times more oxygen.
