Rich, saturating dark fruit pours from the glass here—blackcurrant, plum and blueberry layered with baking spices, a touch of dried fruit and a warm, gravelly edge. Chateau Cos d'Estournel 2009 feels plush and powerful yet surprisingly fresh, its creamy tannins carrying an opulent, modern-styled finish that seems to go on and on.

Château Cos d’Estournel is the powerful, ageworthy grand vin of this celebrated Saint‑Estèphe second growth, typically a Cabernet Sauvignon–Merlot–based blend from old vines on deep gravel and clay-limestone slopes just north of Lafite. Known for its dark, concentrated fruit, firm tannic structure and exotic, spicy complexity, it marries Médoc classicism with a particularly opulent, almost oriental character that reflects both its great terroir and the estate’s ambitious, gravity‑flow winemaking.
