A wine of extraordinary intensity and accessibility, the 1995 Cos d'Estournel is a sexier, more hedonistic offering than the muscular, backward 1996. Opulent, with forward aromatics (gobs of black fruits intermixed with toasty pain grille scents and a boatload of spice), this terrific Cos possesses remarkable intensity, full body, and layers of jammy fruit nicely framed by the wine's new oak. Because of low acidity and sweet tannin, the 1995 will be difficult to resist young, although it will age for 2-3 decades.

The 1995 Cos d’Estournel is drinking marvelously at this juncture in its evolution. Offering beautiful aromas of dark fruits and toasty oak along with earthy tones round out the nose. The palate shows notable weight and brilliant acidity despite the wine’s age. Shows incredible range with flavors of blackberry, crème de cassis, black tea, Asian spices, and cigar box flavors all thoroughly impress through the finish. A truly stunning wine, which even after two decades has plenty life ahead. This is a classic Cos!

Utterly classic Saint-Estèphe notes of earthy black currants, tobacco, and cedarwood emerge from the 1995 Château Cos D'Estournel. This beauty is medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a terrific sense of concentration paired with considerable elegance.

Gorgeous blackberry, toasted oak, Indian spice and light sweet tobacco on the nose. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a caressing texture. Pretty and refined.
