Note di degustazione
The 2021 Château Cos Labory is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, and 7% Petit Verdot. Its medium ruby hue is followed by a spicy, red and black-fruited, medium-bodied 2021 with a rounded, easygoing mouthfeel, ripe yet chewy tannins, and a good finish. This estate was purchased by Cos d’Estournel's Michel Reybier in 2023, and it will be interesting to see what changes take place going forward. While the 2021 was bottled by the team of Cos d'Estournel, the 2023 will be the first vintage where the new team has had full control.

The 2021 Cos Labory, matured in 50% new oak, has a simple, light, slightly rustic bouquet with mulberry and briny scents. The palate is slightly coarse on the entry, but there is decent depth and ample freshness. I have no complaints about this Saint-Estèphe, now under the umbrella of Cos d’Estournel, of course. I appreciate the sapidity on the finish, and it will drink well for 10 to 15 years.
The 2021 Cos Labory is a potent, rustic wine. Scorched earth, incense, leather and tobacco add to an impression of virile rusticity. Potent, burly tannins reinforce that first impression. The 2021 needs time to come around, but I expect it will always be rather monolithic in bearing. Tasted two times.
A strong effort, the 2021 Cos Labory offers up aromas of rich berries, cherries and licorice mingled with sweet soil tones and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, its round and seamless, with unusual depth of fruit for the vintage, concluding with an expansive finish.
Informazioni sul produttore
Louis Gaspard d’Estournel purchased Cos Labory in 1847 and in tribute to this history, the Reybier family (owners of Cos d’Estournel today) acquired the Saint-Estèphe estate and its 35 hectares of vines in 2023.
