Château Cos d'Estournel--Vintage 2000
12 bottles per lot
Château Cos d'Estournel--Vintage 2000 Saint-Estèphe, 2me cru classé Tasting note: This wine puts on weight and grows in stature every time I go back to it. In fact, from the bottle it was better than ever. A blend of 60 Cabernet Sauvignon, 38 Merlot, and 2 Cabernet Franc, the 2000 Cos d'Estournel suffers only in comparison with its successor, the 2001. Deep bluish purple in colour with a reticent but emerging bouquet of cedar, liquorice, blueberry, cassis, vanilla, and lead pencil shavings, this medium-bodied, slightly sinewy Cos d'Estournel has relatively high tannin, an excellent mid-palate, and a persistent finish. Purity and classicism are hallmarks of this top-flight wine. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2022. Robert Parker Wine Advocate #146 April 2003 12 bottles per lot
