The Story
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.
97 Points - James Suckling
Pretty and rich white peach, pear and apple aromas and flavors. Full-bodied with plenty of fruit and bright acidity. Chalky and stony. Happy to watch.
93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
A blend of 74% Sauvignon Blanc and 26% Sémillon, the 2022 Cos d'Estournel Blanc wafts from the glass with aromas of spices, ripe orchard fruits, boxwood and herbs. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and layered, it's framed by delicate dry extracts and a phenolic, elegant bitterness enhanced by oaky notes, culminating in a long, saline and ethereal finish.
