The 1996 vintage is considered a prime example of the house's classic grandeur: focused fruit, fine structure, and remarkable aging potential, while simultaneously showcasing the extravagant nobility of its terroir. Critics from Falstaff, Parker, Jancis Robinson, Jeff Leve, and Wine Spectator describe Cos d'Estournel 1996 as a textbook example of the balance between power and finesse, with concentrated fruit and mineral tension that reflects the terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTasting note: In the glass, it displays a deep garnet red color, with aromas of ripe plums, cassis, and dark cherry, accompanied by black pepper, cedar, and a touch of smoke. On the palate, it is generous yet precise: pronounced, velvety tannins, well-integrated oak, elegant acidity, and a lingering mineral note. The complexity increases throughout the finish, allowing the wine to clearly demonstrate its maturity without seeming overripe. Food pairing recommendation: A juicy grilled ribeye steak, accompanied by chanterelles or porcini mushrooms, and a mature cheese such as Comté or aged Gouda will complement the wine's structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chateau Cos d'Estournel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52336855351634,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/9460\/2322\/files\/cosDestournel1996-01_60060373-0eae-4367-94c2-b435a96fd6a4.jpg?v=1766496535","url":"https:\/\/vinosas.com\/en\/products\/chateau-cos-destournel-1997","provider":"VINOSAS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
