2019 Chateau Cos d’Estournel BLANC St Estephe

Pro Reviews

Wine Advocate (WA)

From holdings in the north of the Medoc and incorporating an increasing percentage of Semillon, the 2019 Cos d’Estournel Blanc offers up aromas of pear, confit citrus, lemon grass and pastry cream, followed by a full-bodied, ample and fleshy palate that’s rich and enveloping, with lively acids and a long, saline finish. This is a fine effort that could embarrass plenty of Pessac-Leognan whites. – 10/03/2022

James Suckling (JS)

This is incredibly long and refined with a compact structure and beautiful tension. It goes on and on. It’s full-bodied, yet tight and energetic. Lovely bitterness and brightness. Lemons, stones and limes. Flint, too. The grapes were harvested at three different moments. It’s beautifully constructed. – James Suckling, June 3, 2020

Vinous Media (VM)

The 2019 Cos d’Estournel Blanc is a wine of real breadth, texture and resonance. Lemon peel white flowers, mint, sage and white pepper give the 2019 striking aromatic top notes and a real feeling of brilliance to complement the natural richness of the 35% Sémillon in this year’s blend. Exotic tropical accents add a good bit of vintage 2019 character. – Antonio Galloni – 18/06/2020
