Chateau Cos D'Estournel Blanc 2019 Chateau Cos D'Estournel

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (93)

A blend of 65% Sauvignon Blanc and 35% Semillon aging in French oak barriques, 8% new, the 2019 Blanc is all limes and lemons to begin, soon opening out to reveal nuances of peach blossoms, wet pebbles, green apples and struck match with a touch of coriander seed. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with citrusy flavors, possessing impressive weight and creamy texture, finishing with loads of mineral layers and bags of freshness.

James Suckling (97)

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.

BOW (8.50)

Falstaff (95)

Light yellow-green, silver highlights. Some caramel, mango, apricot, delicate nuances of meadow herbs, delicate woody spice, underlain by a mineral-citrus touch. Elegant texture, white fruit, subtle sweetness, some pineapple, well-integrated woody components, still very restrained, has power and length, a complex food companion with ageing potential.

Winespectator (93)

Showcases both plump and racy aspects, with verbena and tarragon notes infusing a core of white peach, star fruit and jicama. The long finish has nice clarity. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
