Parker about Château Cos D'Estournel 2002
The 2002 Cos d'Estournel is a blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. This vintage was late ripening with wonderful weather in September and very low yields this year. Deep garnet colored with a touch of brick, the palate sports tobacco, cedar chest and yeast extract scents over a core of figs, dried mulberries, fruitcake, sautéed herbs and cinnamon toast with a waft of oolong tea. Medium-bodied, the palate features bags of freshness, with firm yet grainy tannins and plenty of ripe dried berry flavors, finishing long and spicy.

Château Cos D'Estournel 2002
Château Cos d'Estournel 2002 is a wine that, despite the challenges of the vintage, impressively expresses the characteristic elegance and structure of its terroir in the Saint-Estèphe region of Bordeaux.
On the nose, this wine presents a subtle palette of aromas. Aromas of dark fruits such as cassis, blackberries, and black cherries are accompanied by delicate notes of spice, tobacco, and a hint of undergrowth. Although the aromas are less intense than in great vintages, the wine still displays a certain refinement and complexity.
On the palate, Château Cos d'Estournel 2002 presents an elegant structure and a silky mouthfeel. The tannins are fine and well-integrated, resulting in a smooth texture. The fruit flavors are subtle and balanced, accompanied by a discreet acidity that gives the wine freshness. Nuances of herbs and a hint of leather contribute to the complexity and lend the wine an additional refinement.
The finish is harmonious and persistent, with a gentle finish.
