Over het wijnhuis | Château Cos d'Estournel is een 2e Grand Cru Classé, gevestigd in Saint-Estèphe en behoort bij de top van Bordeaux. Cos d'Estournel springt er uit - in meerdere opzichten. Niet alleen worden de wijnen steevast geprezen in de pers, ook het landgoed is er één die je niet snel vergeet. Het bijzondere bouwwerk doet meer denken aan een Oosterse tempel dan aan een Middeleeuws, Frans wijnkasteel. |

Awards | "Gently reductive aromas of pear, nectarine and gooseberry introduce the 2021 Cos d'Estournel Blanc, a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny wine that's seamless and enveloping, with a bright spine of tangy acidity. As readers may remember, it's a blend of 71% Sauvignon Blanc and fully 29% Sémillon." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Aromas of sliced pears, green apple, matchstick, and dried papaya follow through to a full body with a solid core of fruit and phenolics that give it structure and tightness. Slightly chewy at the end. Very structured. Give this time to open and show its true self. Try after 2026." - James Suckling "71% Sauvignon Blanc, 29% Sémillon. Cask sample. Intense, pure and long, again with marked tension and acidity. Persistent fruit with a floral-citrus nuance. Pebble-sucking finish. Clean cut, if a little hard on the finish but should develop further. (JL)' - Jancis Robinson "The 2021 Cos d';Estournel Blanc is a big wine—rich, dramatic and expressive. Low yields in 2021 created a white that is deep, layered and quite potent in feel. Tangerine peel, citrus confit, marzipan and a touch of new oak give the 2021 a decidedly flamboyant, extroverted personality." - Vinous "Leads with tarragon and thyme notes, followed by lemon gelée and white peach flavors. Features a flash of apricot on the finish, giving this an unctuous feel. Flattering. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now through 2026." - Wine Spectator "Clementine and lemon/lime brightness, spring flowers, white pepper and wet stone. Cool ocean breezes near the mouth of the Gironde estuary and the clay and limestone soils are conducive to aromatic precision, and the palate shows subtle depth and impressive length. 71% Sauvignon Blanc with 29% Semillon, aged in only 8% new oak. Enjoy with lobster in a butter lemon sauce." - Decanter |
