Château Cos Labory has been an official Fifth Growth since the famous 1855 Classification. It sits in Saint-Estèphe, the same celebrated appellation as Cos d’Estournel, with vines rooted in gravel over a marl-limestone base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 2016 vintage is often called Bordeaux’s “miracle vintage”. A wet spring gave way to one of the driest summers on record, cooled by fresh nights. A timely September rain and a long, sunny autumn then let the Cabernet ripen slowly. The result is a wine of rare balance: ripe and generous, yet fresh and refined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIn the glass, it opens with bright red cherry, cassis and plum, lifted by blood orange, wild flowers, spice and herbs. The palate is medium-bodied and elegant, with fine-grained tannins and a long, persistent finish. Ten years on, it has reached its drinking window and will continue to evolve gracefully through 2040.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy you’ll love it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA genuine 1855 classified growth\u003c\/strong\u003e at a fraction of the price of Saint-Estèphe’s big names\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrom the celebrated 2016 vintage\u003c\/strong\u003e, now ten years old and drinking beautifully\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassic Saint-Estèphe\u003c\/strong\u003e: 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot, aged 14 months in French oak (50% new)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCellar-worthy\u003c\/strong\u003e: enjoy it now or lay it down until 2040\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAn impressive gift\u003c\/strong\u003e for the Bordeaux lover in your life, or a case for your own cellar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing suggestions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDecant for 1–2 hours and serve at 16–18°C.
