This excellent project of Cos d’Estournel’s proprietor, Michel Reybier, awards the consumer with a delicious, up-front, seductive and sexy style of wine (60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot) with plenty of plum, black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, light tannin, medium body and excellent concentration and purity. This is what consumers should be flocking to buy more of, and what more Bordeaux estates should be producing. Kudos to Reybier and the staff at Cos d’Estournel. A sleeper of the vintage.
