Chateau Cos Labory Saint Estephe 2019

$5299

The quiet neighbor with the famous name. Cos Labory is a Fifth Growth in Saint-Estèphe, sharing a property line with Cos d'Estournel. The Audoy family ran this estate for generations on a much smaller, more traditional scale before selling to Cos d'Estournel's Michel Reybier in 2023; this 2019 was bottled under Audoy stewardship. 2019 was a superb Médoc vintage, ripe and balanced, and Cos Labory's classical style — Cabernet-led, structured, savory — is showing beautifully. A way into the great Saint-Estèphe terroir at a much friendlier scale than its neighbors.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2019 Cos Labory remains rather brawny, but it certainly has a ton of character. Black cherry, plum, gravel, licorice and scorched earth add to an impression of rusticity. Even so, there is plenty of depth and more than enough energy to support many years of fine drinking." —Vinous

Decanter

92 points

"Wonderfully fragrant nose, smells rich and perfumed with high toned fruit nuances. Quite a fresh, juicy style, light almost with a distinct clarity of flavour even without a particularly big structure. Linear and direct, this just gently moves through the palate with a persistent drive of cherry and black plum flavours and high acidity. Bright, lively and charming with a long finish."
