A very modern and energetic Bordeaux, described by wine critic Jancis Robinson as"true to the appellation"of Saint-Estèphe. Drive just past Château Lafite Rothschild and tucked in next to Château Cos d'Estournel you'll find Château Cos Labory. Often overlooked because of its famous neighbours, this Saint-Estèphe performed wonderfully in the challenging 2011 vintage. Ripe, oaky, sweetly spiced and packed with dark fruits - blueberries, blackberries and blackcurrants - this has minty eucalyptus and vanilla notes that will appeal to Rhône and Australia fans as well as Bordeaux drinkers. All of which makes it a real crowd pleaser. A go-to for lamb dishes and game.£7.73 per 100.00ml
