The 2006 Cos d’Estournel is a wonderful wine from an underrated vintage that has really blossomed with time in bottle. Composed of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot, this is really beginning to hit its stride but should continue to drink well over the next 10 years or so.
- The 2006 Cos d’Estournel, for my mind, has always been leagues above its rival, Montrose, principally because its rival took a rare misstep in this vintage. It has an attractive ferrous bouquet with undergrowth and hints of Indian spice. The palate is medium-bodied and quite fleshy for Saint-Estèphe, the Merlot in quite expressive. The texture has a satisfying graininess and that spiciness returns towards the rather conservative, steadfast finish. It is a solid Cos d’Estournel, not one from the very top drawer, but it should provide another 15 years of drinking pleasure. Tasted at the Cos d’Estournel vertical in London.

Cos d`Estournel

Cos d`Estournel

Since it was acquired by French businessman Michel Reybier in 2000, Château Cos d`Estournel has cemented its position as one of the top wine estates in the Médoc. This illustrious Second Growth produces a celebrated first wine, in addition to a second red, Les Pagodes de Cos and a white, Cos d’Estournel Blanc.

The key grape variety is Cabernet Sauvignon, together with Merlot and smaller amounts of both Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. A superb example of high-class St-Estèphe, Château Cos d`Estournel is renowned for its powerful, rich wines, packed full of cassis character, with complex nuances of slate and graphite.
