Cos d'Estournel
Background
Cos d’Estournel is arguably the greatest estate in St Estephe, looking down from its exotic Chateau onto Lafite at the northern end of Pauillac. Always producing intense, powerful and structured wines, since the arrival of General Manager Aymeric de Gironde (who took over from the esteemed Jean-Guillaume Prats before the 2011 vintage) Cos has become arguably fresher and more nimble, whilst retaining its signature minerality and ageability.
Undoubtedly one of the ‘Super Seconds’, in top vintages it can really push the First Growths for quality and panache – and in 2009 it finally reached its zenith attaining 100 points from Robert Parker.
