Château Cos d'Estournel 1928 is a rare and unique second classified growth. An elegant, rich and quite fleshy wine with aromas of spices on the palate. A real journey with this old vintage.

Avis d'expert

97 / 100

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate

(12-1993) This has always been considered one of the great 1928s and when I first tasted it a number of years ago it was nearly perfect. This particular bottle displayed the tough tannin that is a characteristic of the vintage. No doubt the high tannin and rich concentration are the reasons why so many 1928s are in superb condition at 65 years of age. The color was a dusty, dark rubygarnet, and the bouquet offered aromas of sweet red and black fruits, damp earth, oak, and an interesting pine tree-like scent. Rich, medium to full-bodied, with excellent depth of fruit, and freshness, this wine will last for 10-15 more years. However, I think it was a richer, more complete wine several years ago.

Neal Martin - Vinous Magazine
The 1928 vintage is generally recognized as exceptional. Cos d'Estournel 1928 has a beautiful tiled finish and the discreet nose is however long and complex. The tasting reveals a rich and fleshy wine, with spicy notes and intense length. What a lesson in humility and what emotion in front of a wine made almost 90 years ago and which still appears to us with so much elegance!

(1998) Full flavoured; very good. Consistent with earlier notes.
