What reviewers say

“Um dos melhores vinhos que eu já provei. Por se tratar de um vinho com 35 anos, ele chegou ao seu ápice da guarda. Taninos muito macios, cor ruby aberta e brilhosa e aroma fantástico.”

A myriad of scents, colors and tastes appeals to the senses. The Grand Vin of Cos d’Estournel is both demure and deliberately sensuous, a fascinating and elegant nectar.
