Chateau Cos Labory Saint Estephe 5Ème Cru Classé 2021

Château Cos Labory's 2021 Saint-Estèphe represents the Left Bank's signature style: a Cabernet Sauvignon–dominant blend (60%) anchored by Merlot (33%) and Petit Verdot (7%), delivering medium-full body with refined tannin structure. The wine opens with dark fruit—blackcurrant and plum—layered with cedar and black pepper, evolving toward tobacco and leather on the mid-palate. Minerality and graphite notes underscore the terroir of this 5ème Cru Classé estate, offering both immediate approachability and cellaring potential. A food-friendly classic suited to grilled red meat, lamb, and aged cheeses.
