Having inherited a few vines near the village of Cos, he recognized, in 1811, the quality of their wine and decided to vinify them separately. \u003cstrong\u003eVery rapidly, Cos d'Estournel's wine exceeded the prices of the most prestigious wines\u003c\/strong\u003e and was exported as far as India. In 1852, overwhelmed with debts he had accumulated in order to extend and beautify his estate, Louis was obliged to sell Cos to a London banker called Martyns. Château Cos d’Estournel has belonged to Michel Reybier since 2000. Mr. Reybier’s objective has been to uphold the château’s high standards and constant quest for excellence while at the same time continuing the avant-garde style initiated by Louis Gaspard d’Estournel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn the old Gascon language, the word 'Cos' means 'The Hill of Pebbles'\u003c\/strong\u003e. And as a matter of fact, the hill of Cos, which is situated on the banks of the Gironde, is an impressive accumulation of Quaternary gravel wrested from the distant mountains of the Massif Central and the Pyrenees and laid on Saint-Estèphe's limestone bed when the primeval river receded. Shaped into well-drained slopes by erosion, these exceptionally deep layers of gravel are a true geological curiosity and also one of the world's most precious \u003cem\u003eterroir\u003c\/em\u003e, for it forces the old vines planted on its heights to thrust their roots into the arid soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot. \u003c\/span\u003eSee Critical Reviews for detailed tasting notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCritical Reviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is so aromatic with blackcurrants, black berries and raspberries.

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. Beautifully integrated at this early stage, the last decade has witnessed a number of changes at this address, including a trend toward less aggressively late picking, cooler fermentations and élevage with fewer rackings and more moderate percentages of less heavily toasted new oak: in 2019, the results speak for themselves. ~97 Robert Parker. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Grand Vin 2019 Château Cos D'Estournel checks in as 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot coming from 43 hectoliters per hectare and hitting a healthy 14% alcohol. Brought up in just 55% new French oak, it's a pretty, elegant, seamless Saint-Estèphe that has 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. \u003cstrong\u003eExceedingly elegant and finesse-driven, with a touch of Château Lafite-like character\u003c\/strong\u003e, I compared this wine to a more elegant version of the 2016 from barrel, but now from bottle, I think 2014 is a better comparison in its weight, balance, and just overall style.
