Product features : Chateau Cos d'Estournel - 2nd Cru Classé 2020 — Saint-Estèphe
Breeding
Aged in 80% new oak barrels for 18 months.
On the eye
Deep garnet robe with excellent clarity and intensity.
On the nose
Complex bouquet revealing ripe dark fruits, vanilla and toasted oak. The aromatics develop with air, suggesting layers of cassis, plum and subtle spice.
In the mouth
Rounded and elegant on the palate, with fine-grained tannins and supple structure. The wine balances richness with restraint, offering excellent length and a persistent finish.
Cos d'Estournel combines the athletic structure characteristic of Saint-Estèphe with textural refinement more commonly found in Pauillac. This is a hedonistic, compelling wine—neither austere nor overwrought. Excellent with roasted red meats, lamb tagine, pork fillet or veal with mushrooms. A wine of considerable breeding and precision.

CHATEAU COS D'ESTOURNEL
Set on the hillsides of Saint-Estèphe, Château Cos d'Estournel covers 100 hectares classified as a 2nd Grand Cru Classé in 1855, now fully organic since 2024. Founded in 1811 by Louis-Gaspard d'Estournel — nicknamed the Maharajah of Saint-Estèphe for his pioneering trade with India — the château embodies the depth and structural precision of this appellation: deep quaternary gravels, Cabernet Sauvignon at its core, and a measured élevage that rewards patience. At Halles Quercamps, we selected this estate for its organic commitment, exceptional terroir, and the remarkable consistency of a classified growth that ages with genuine distinction.
