Château Cos d’Estournel 2022 is a majestic Saint-Estèphe that combines exotic aromatics, density, and remarkable precision. Layers of cassis, blackberry, blueberry, violets, graphite, sandalwood, incense, and exotic spice unfold across a powerful yet highly refined palate. Despite its concentration, the wine remains lifted by vibrant acidity and finely polished tannins, delivering exceptional balance, energy, and length.
