Château Cos d'Estournel 1981
Saint-Estèphe - Deuxième Grand Cru Classé
TERROIR
The vineyard, located on the hillside of Cos, has gentle elevations of up to 20 meters at its peak. It is located near the border between Pauillac and Saint Estephe, at the southern end of the Saint Estephe appellation. The vines are on average about 40 years old. But the estate also has very old Merlot vines, which are over 100 years old. Part of the terroir is located on the hill of Cos, where some of their best terroirs are found.
SERVICE
Château Cos d'Estournel is best served at 15.5 °C. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and energy. Young vintages can be decanted for 2 to 4 hours. This allows the wine to soften and open up its flavor. Older vintages may need a little decanting, just enough to remove sediment.
