2004 Chateau Cos d’Estournel – Structured Saint-Estèphe with Classic Appeal

The 2004 Chateau Cos d’Estournel captures the traditional depth and spice of Saint-Estèphe with a vintage that emphasizes clarity and structure over sheer power. Located just north of Pauillac, Cos d’Estournel is known for its exotic architectural style and its wines that age gracefully over decades. This Second Growth estate, classified in the 1855 Grands Crus Classés of Médoc, continues to be a benchmark for Left Bank collectors.

Tasting Notes

The 2004 shows a composed, savory bouquet of cedar, dried tobacco, and blackcurrant, underpinned by earthy mineral tones. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with well-integrated tannins, delivering notes of graphite, cassis, and cigar box. It finishes with a classic Médoc grip, offering elegance over opulence.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

This vintage is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with small proportions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The gravel and clay-rich soils of Cos d’Estournel provide the foundation for its structure and longevity. Fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel, followed by aging in French oak barrels (about 50% new) for 18–20 months.

Investment & Collectibility

The 2004 vintage is quietly gaining recognition for its aging trajectory and classical profile. For collectors who favor subtlety, balance, and evolution in their Bordeaux portfolio, this Cos is perfect for your collection. Its drinking window is now fully open, though it remains stable for further cellaring.

Vintage Insights

2004 was a return to classicism after the ripe 2003 vintage. A cool spring and moderate summer, followed by an extended harvest, allowed for optimal phenolic maturity. Cos d’Estournel benefited from patient picking, resulting in wines with precision and aging potential.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2004 Cos d'Estournel is a blend of 74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet in color with a touch of brick, the nose is still very youthful, sporting notions of plum preserves, blackcurrant cordial and Black Forest cake with hints of garrigue, wild sage, charcuterie, black olives and unsmoked cigars. The medium to full-bodied palate is generously fruited with bags of earthy and black fruit preserves layers, framed by chewy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long. Reviewed by Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Issue date: November 30, 2018. Drinking window: 2018 - 2033.

Vinous

Good deep ruby-red. Deep black and red fruit aromas complicated by musky espresso, dark chocolate and smoke. Then round, sweet and elegant; coats the palate without coming across as heavy. A very suave example of Cos, finishing with fine tannins and a lingering chocolatey flavor. This is excellent. Reviewed by Stephen Tanzer, Issue date: May 2006. Drinking window: N/A.
