Goulee Rouge by Cos d’Estournel 2016 Magnum 1.5L

150cl / 13%

“This is an excellent Goulée with the cooling edge of a beautiful fresh Médoc coupled with generosity. Easily one of the best Goulées that I have tasted.

Flint and smoke aromatics on the nose are followed by welcoming red fruits through the body of the wine… this is the first year the new plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon have been included in the blend. Drinking Window 2023 – 2035″

About the Goulee Rouge by Cos d’Estournel 2016 Magnum 1.5L

Tasting Notes

Colour: Deep garnet-purple
Aroma: A vivid, fresh, lively bouquet of black fruit infused with bell pepper.
Palate: The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin and plenty of tarry black fruit laced with tobacco. I appreciate the freshness and classicism of this Goulée, which is more cohesive and shows a little more substance than previous vintages. Very fine. (V)
Grape Varieties: 77% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc
Awards: 93pts – James Suckling; 93pts – Decanter; 90pts – Vinous; 90pts – Wine Spectator

History of Chateau Cos d’Estournel

Chateau Cos d’Estournel lies at the entrance to Saint-Estèphe, ideally situated at the heart of an undulating landscape in the northern Médoc. The estate’s rolling contours served as inspiration for its name; ”cos” is derived from the word for “hill of pebbles” in the old Gascon dialect. Classified as a Second Growth Bordeaux estate, Cos d’Estournel is without doubt, one of the top producers in the St. Estephe appellation, producing complex and intense, full-bodied wines.

The chateau is often referred to as “”super second,”” meaning that it produces wines at a quality nearing that of the First Growth houses. Cos d’Estournel wines contain a large amount of Merlot (40%), one of the highest percentages in the region, in fact; this gives the wines their wonderful fleshy, chewy texture.
