Solid and chewy and sweet without really soaring excitement. Bit earthbound but ticks the boxes. 16+

Nez de fruits frais, assez intense. Entrée en bouche un peu diffuse. Il plaît par sa dimension tactile. La texture est fondante et le tanin judicieusement extrait.

An earthy, medium-bodied wine with cassis, blackberries and a crisp, herbal quality to the fruit.

The 2015 Cos Labory has a slightly muted, chalky nose that showed just a little dilution. The palate is medium-bodied and nicely balanced. I feel that nobody here has tried to compensate for the storm that affected the harvest, dialed this Cos Labory down a couple of notches to retain a clean and fresh, lightly spiced Saint Estèphe that should give a decade of drinking pleasure - even if it will not top your wine of the year list.

Précis, généreux, notes de cèdre racées, très proche en qualité (mais pas en prix) des crus vedettes de l’appellation et témoignage réussi d’une propriété restée familiale et modeste.

The 2015 Cos Labory comes across as quite oaky and sweet. There is good depth and overall raciness in the glass, but the oak is just overpowering. Although the 2015 is certainly a solid wine, it could have been something more. Tasted two times.

Very good briary, slightly spicy fruit. Good depth and freshness – quite seductive for St-Estèphe and continues the success of this château. 2020-2032

Barrel Sample. With the typical core of dry tannins that is Saint-Estèphe, this wine also boasts light fruit character and crisp acidity. It is on the dry side, and those tannins may be too much for the fruit. 89 points
