Château Cos d'Estournel is a Deuxièmes Cru, or 2nd Growth, in the 1855 classification of Bordeaux. It is one of the "Super Seconds" of Saint-Estephe, arguably producing the commune's best wine year after year. The Château gets its name from a Gascogne word, "caux", which loosely translates as a hill of stones. The cellar is famous for its Oriental inspired architecture.

The wines of Cos d'Estournel are long-lived with a distinct masculine elegance that do an amazing job of combining power and grace. The wines are very aromatic and concentrated with a balanced mix of bold fruit and sharp minerality all framed by healthy flavors of new oak. Pair with a hearty steak au poivre.

Alluring from the get-go, with boysenberry and creamed plum flavors that offer an almost exotic edge, backed by liberal accents of rooibos tea, mulling spices and sweet tobacco. Caressing in the end, this also shows a chalky spine that's better integrated than most in this vintage, plus a pretty, lingering curl of alder. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2025 through 2037. 14,500 cases made.
