Château Cos d'Estournel *

HISTORY:

In 1811, Louis Gaspard d’Estournel decided to make wine from a few hectares of vines that he had inherited and Château Cos d’Estournel was born. Classified as a Deuxième Cru Classé in 1855, exports of this prestigious wine eventually reached as far as southeast Asia, which inspired long-time Sinophile Louis to erect the unique and recognisable stone pagodas which still stand over the estate’s cellars. Unfortunately, due to surmounting debts, Louis Gaspard eventually had to sell Cos, but his name has endured to this day.
