Cos d'Estournel

Cos d’Estournel : The origins of this famous Saint-Estèphe go back to Louis-Gaspard d'Estournel. In the nineteenth century, he inherited vineyards, located near the village of Cos, and decided to exploit this magnificent region, which will become the Cos d'Estournel. Thanks to the reputation of its wine and in particular, its trade with India, he was nicknamed "the Maharajah of Saint-Estèphe."
