Cos d'Estournel blanc
KEEN, POWERFUL, IMPETUOUS
The power of the elements.
Unique in character, Cos d’Estournel Blanc evokes the coolness of sea spray and salty sea winds whipping one’s face while also conjuring the warmth and richness of the land. A generous, lively wine, it brings to mind a slice of bread spread thickly with quince jam, a sun-drenched stall of autumn fruit or sudden recollections of the sweetest summer moments.

SAUVIGNON BLANC : 75% SÉMILLON : 25%
The unusually hot summer might have led to difficulties for the 2016 harvest were it not for our exceptional terroir and the technical wizardry of our team. With a lovely robe with green highlights, this marvelous vintage offers a nose of int and lemon, aromas that perfectly balance the wine’s fullness on the palate. Fresh and tightly woven, it offers a vibrant, long finish, the hallmark of a great Cos d’Estournel Blanc.

SERVING RECOMMENDATIONS
Cos d’Estournel Blanc derives its unique style from the winemaking methods employed at the estate. As it ages it will evolve constantly, revealing different facets of its personality over time. During the first three years after harvest, Cos d’Estournel Blanc offers intense aromas of fruits and flowers. After four or five years of aging, it will develop toasted notes and a lovely roundness, gaining in depth as it reaches the height of its aromatic expression.
Your wines should be opened upon service, without decantation, and kept at a temperature of 12 to 13°C.
