Taut energy defines Cos d'Estournel 2021, with vivid red and blue fruits framed by fine, persistent tannins and a cool, stony backbone. Notes of currant, strawberry and dark cherry are layered with hints of cocoa, spice and dried flowers, giving a poised, linear wine that feels refined rather than austere. The finish is long, saline and precise, showcasing both the estate’s plush style and the freshness of this cooler vintage.

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.
