Appearances at Pebble Beach Food & Wine 2013:

The Power & Grace of Château Cos d'Estournel (Saturday)Lovers of great Bordeaux need no introduction to the legendary wines from Cos, one of the benchmark châteaux in Saint-Estèphe, the most northerly of the Médoc appellations. A “second growth” estate just across the stream from neighboring Pauillac's Château Lafite-Rothschild, Cos d'Estournel was originally named for the pebbly hill on which its cabernet sauvignon and merlot vines thrive. We are very pleased to welcome Mr. Dimitri Augenblick, the Director of Development at Cos, as he guides us through an extraordinary tasting of wines from the 70's through to the 2009 vintage.
