A legendary bottle entering its prime. Cos d'Estournel is the 'King of Saint-Estèphe,' the Second Growth whose Indian-pagoda-style chateau is one of the most recognizable silhouettes in the Médoc. The 2000 vintage is one of the great Bordeaux years of the past half-century — a millennial vintage that produced wines of extraordinary depth and longevity. At 25 years old, this is well into its drinking window: the tannins have softened, the fruit has turned secondary, and the wine is showing all the tertiary complexity collectors wait for. Drink now through the next decade.
