Product description

Silky, delicate and immensely profound, this vintage embodies the quintessence of Cos d'Estournel. Multi-faceted, it delivers aromas of cinnamon and jasmine, fine mineral notes, and a touch of spice that perfectly structures the wine through its finish. A dazzling expression of the estate's terroir, exceptional and full of grace, Cos d'Estournel is an alluring wine with universal appeal that promises many wonderful years of cellaring.

Blend: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot

99 Points - James Suckling

This is so aromatic with blackcurrants, blackberries and raspberries. Pure fruit, together with coffee and nutmeg. Fresh and clean with bright spices. Full-bodied yet reserved and tight with fantastic structure. So long. This is a great Cos for the cellar. A real benchmark for the true character. 

98 Points - Decanter

Powerful and enjoyable Cos. Needs to be given time in the glass to reveal the impressively velvety texture and the sheer depth of bitter black chocolate, black truffle and coffee notes. The tannins sit back and then build slowly to full bristling impact by the close of play. Feels highly sophisticated, with the always-present Cos glamour.

96+ Points - Wine Enthusiast

The beautiful perfume of this stylish wine is the first impression. They set the scene for the wonderful black currant fruits and dark tannins that meld together on the palate. This structured wine is made with 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and shows long-term aging potential.

The 2019 Cos d'Estournel has turned out brilliantly, exhibiting aromas of minty cassis, sweet wild berries and wild plums mingled with hints of spices, loamy soil and potpourri. Full-bodied, broad and enveloping, it's polished and seamless, its ample chassis of fine, velvety tannin entirely concealed in its deep core of succulent, crunchy fruit. 

96 Points - Jeb Dunnuck

Brought up in just 55% new French oak, it's a pretty, elegant, seamless Saint-Estephe with plenty of redcurrants and cassis-like fruit as well as lead pencil, graphite, and chalky minerality. Medium to full-bodied, it has supple, fine tannins, wonderful purity, and a classy, regal profile that will be loved by staunch traditionalists out there. 

96 Points - Wine Spectator

Dark and winey, featuring black currant, fig and blackberry preserve flavours with a smouldering hint of cast iron, plus notes of anise, apple wood, sweet bay leaf and warm earth. The finish offers a long sanguine thread that stitches it all up.
