this winery consistently delivers
fruity and long on the palate
grapefruit and a zesty
structured and full of swathes of black fruit
in which a load of tannins prevails that cover the mouth for a long time and ensure a firm and fresh aftertaste
Chateau Cos d'Estournel, Saint-Estephe, France 2009 Cotes de Castillon this winery consistently deliversDeep 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, sauted 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. 100 Pts Robert Parker
