Cos d’Estournel is unlike any other château in Bordeaux—a grand, exotic estate whose onion-domed towers and intricate latticework nod to the Orient, reflecting its founder’s early trade with India. That architectural flamboyance isn’t just for show: it mirrors the estate’s bold, expressive wines and its long-standing appeal to cosmopolitan collectors around the world. Situated at the southern tip of Saint-Estèphe, Cos has always stood apart, producing wines with the structure of the appellation but the polish and depth that transcend it. It’s rightly considered the leading “Super Second”—a term coined to describe classified growths whose top vintages consistently rival the Firsts. This rare vertical tasting spans four vintages and offers a deep dive into how one of Bordeaux’s most characterful estates continues to evolve, enchant, and command global attention.
