CHATEAU COS D'ESTOURNEL 2003 |

Château Cos d'Estournel 2003 St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru ClasséThis has nearly 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, which is high for Cos. It is a landmark vintage at this property, with its great aromatic bouquet and exotic, yet perfectly structured taste. More recently, unbelievably 'salty', maritime/minerally nose, so redolent of the best sites of St. Estèphe. Plummy/irony taste. Beautiful structure overlaid by luscious fruit. Now the 'star' St. Estèphe in this vintage that so favoured the appellation. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 97 922:12 bts (owc) 923:12 bts (owc)Estimates are per lot
