{"product_id":"chateau-cos-destournel-saint-estephe-2000","title":"Chateau Cos d'Estournel, Saint-Estephe, 2000","description":"Louis Gaspard d'Estournel—the \"Maharajah of Saint-Estèphe\"—built his estate with an eye toward exotic markets, shipping wine to India as early as 1838 and adorning his chai with pagodas and a door from the Sultan of Zanzibar's palace. The theatricality of the architecture belies the seriousness of the wine: Cos d'Estournel is one of Bordeaux's most consistent \"Super Seconds,\" often rivaling First Growths. The 2000 vintage is a millennium masterpiece across the Left Bank, and this blend of sixty percent Cabernet Sauvignon, thirty-eight percent Merlot, and two percent Cabernet Franc shows why. Opulent sandalwood, Chinese five spice, and cigar box scents frame a core of dark fruit, while wonderfully plush tannins carry a refreshing menthol lift through the finish. Now over twenty-five years old and entering peak drinking, with the structure to continue evolving for another fifteen to twenty years. One of the great Saint-Estèphes.","brand":"Private","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047938523193,"sku":"NYC-[PVT]-NC11026-110226-64-14","price":299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Chateau-Cos-dEstournel-Saint-Estephe-2000-Red-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York_5a9c52bd.jpg?v=1793696538","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/chateau-cos-destournel-saint-estephe-2000","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
