Château Cos d'Estournel 2003 (6 MAG)

Château Cos d'Estournel 2003 

St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru Classé

Excellent levels, 3 labels very slightly scuffed, 2 slightly scuffed; Excellents niveaux, 3 étiquettes très légèrement éraflées, 2 légèrement éraflées

This 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

A wonderful collection of Bordeaux from a pristine modern cellar, comprising all the leading names and the best vintages produced between 2000 and 2010. All the wines were purchased directly from one of the most reputable and established Bordeaux Négociants. This cellar has an incredible selection of bottles, magnums and double magnums from two of the most iconic vintages produced in the past 20 years with an impressive quantity of First Growths. Highlights includes the now legendary 2000 and 2005 vintages with all the First Growths in original wooden cases together with rarities such as Le Pin 2005 in magnum. This is evidently the cellar of a wine lover with true passion and extremely discerning tastes and is a collection that is sure to have global appeal.
