The 2017 Château Cos d’Estournel is a stunning expression of Bordeaux’s Left Bank, capturing the essence of its unique terroir with remarkable precision. Scoring an impressive 98 points, this wine unfolds layers of rich blackcurrant, ripe plum, and a hint of cedar, all beautifully interwoven with subtle notes of tobacco and spice. The velvety tannins provide a luxurious mouthfeel, while a vibrant acidity ensures balance and longevity. This exceptional vintage pairs beautifully with a hearty lamb dish or a decadent dark chocolate dessert, making it a perfect choice for special celebrations or intimate gatherings. With such quality, this wine is not only a delightful indulgence but also a smart buy for those looking to elevate their collection.
