Description

chevron-down

The former owner and namesake Louis Gaspard d'Estournel was known as the Maharaja of Saint-Estèphe. He decorated the castle in Indian style, threw large 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 wine making technique. From picking to maturing of the bottles, everything is carefully checked and carried out with the greatest care. In this way, they have managed to create a vinification process in which the wine is transported without pumps. All actions are performed by gravity. In 1855 the Chateau obtained the 2nd Grand Cru Classé status

The 2020 Cos d'Estournel is composed of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot. The opaque purple-colored Cos d'Estournel offers a beautifully sweet nose consisting of ripe blackcurrants, Provencal olives, smoked herbs, toasted bread and licorice. Rich and powerful, but also elegant and stylish. One of the most beautiful vintages and rewarded with 98+/100 parking points.
