Grand Cru Classé of the Saint-Estèphe appellation (Médoc) in 1855, the Château Cos d'Estournel is a blend of Cabernet sauvignon 65% Merlot 33% Cabernet franc 2%. It is an extravagant wine, powerful and velvety at the same time. Robert Parker Comment: "Deep garnet colored, the 2009 Cos d'Estournel features a myriad of wonderfully intense notes, including blackcurrant pastilles, redcurrant jelly, kirsch and blueberry compote with hints of rose hip tea, sautéed herbs, underbrush, pencil shavings and Indian spices. Full-bodied, rich and opulently fruited in the mouth, it has beautifully plush tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing very long and very spicy." Suitable for aging until 2070 This bottle comes from a private collection. It's impossible to guarantee that the wine is still perfectly preserved after so many years. Therefore, this bottle is sold "as seen and liked."
