Description
Chateau Cos d'Estournel 1989St. Estephe
1bn, 8wisl
Bottle (12)
The Perfect Arc Cellar. This is one of those rare collections that touches upon all the most beautiful parts of the wine growing world, both deep and broad in its scope. Most every wine was purchased on release and stored in an impeccable temperature and humidity-controlled facility.
“Fragrant floral notes, the most muscular of the two 1989s, with plenty of power. Cos is known for its exoticism, and a hot year like 1989 helps to draw out that side of things, with fruitcake, olive tapenade, fennel and black pepper spices, and a smoky caramel edge to the finish. Plenty of St-Estèphe signature, and a showcase for how Cabernet Sauvignon ages so slowly on these gravel-clay soils on the borders of Pauillac. Bruno Prats was owner at the time, as we are here a full 11 years before the arrival of Michel Reybier. Likely to have been over 50 hl/ha yield, as this was an extremely abundant year—and provided the highest natural alcohol on record at the time, with no chaptalisation. 100% new oak. There is a youthful feel to this Cos, but it is less nuanced than Pavie (I would suggest choosing the 1990 Cos if given the choice between the two). Still plenty of life ahead, when it may gain extra complexity—never count these out.” (93 pts. Jane Anson, Sept. 2021)
