"The 2023 Cos d’Estournel is fabulous. Dark, resonant and inviting, the 2023 has
so much to offer. All the elements are beautifully woven together. Black cherry,
plum, licorice, espresso, mocha and incense fill out the layers. Readers will find a
Cos endowed with tremendous substance and intensity. I can't remember a
young Cos with this much fruit concentration, yet there is nothing overdone
here. I loved it."
- Antonio Galloni
"The Grand Vin 2023 Château Cos D'Estournel checks in as 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, and a splash of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, resting in 50% new French oak. This beauty brings everything up a notch, with awesome crème de cassis, graphite, violets, spicy oak, and chocolate-driven aromatics. Rich, full-bodied, and beautifully textured, it has the fresher yet ripe style of the vintage, beautiful tannins, integrated acidity, and a great finish. It's a beautifully elegant yet powerful wine in the making from this team."
