Though it’s certainly not the most powerful vintage for the vineyard
pure bouquet that unfolds wonderfully in the glass
to produce a wine of real character and plenitude that's a worthy follow-up to the terrific 2022
quite precise with delicacy on the finish that is a welcome surprise after warmth of the growing season
it has pure black and blue fruits
2023 Chateau Cos d'Estournel Saint-Estephe (Pre-Arrival) Eola-Amitiy Hills Though it’s certainly not the96 98 Points, Vinous "The 2023 Cos dEstournel is fabulous. Dark, resonant and inviting, the 2023 has so much to offer. All the elements are beautifully woven together. Black cherry, plum, licorice, espresso, mocha and incense fill out the layers. Readers will find a Cos endowed with tremendous substance and intensity. I can't remember a young Cos with this much fruit concentration, yet there is nothing overdone here. I loved it."
