Château de Costis Bordeaux Rouge 2011, Cuvée Passion – Recommanded
«Some lovely redcurrant, blackcurrant bud nuances on the palate, rounded out with oak ageing but subtly so, good freshness, highly enjoyable from winemakers Mazeau-Bergström, in the village of Targon. A popular choice.»

Chateau de Costis Cuvée Passion Bordeaux Rouge 2003
«Entre-deux-Mers is also a land of red wines. “Fruity, structured, spicy, sweet, velvety, woody, long and balanced. Flowery as well!“ This “Passion” inflames the jury!»
Extract from Gault&Millau Magazine
Bordeaux : The best of “Mille et un châteaux” for less than 7,50€
Domaine de Costis :
«What a pretty aroma with oak quality! A mix of havana tabacco and ripe fruit, followed by a flattering mouth, very rounded. Persistent and gourmand. 4€»

Château de Costis :
«Our own tasting confirmed that this wine is far from the dingy and sulphurous Entre-deux-Mers which may still linger in some old drinkers’ memories.»
Extract from Up’ Magazine
December 1990
Château de Costis :
«The wines from Entre-deux-Mers go very well with fish dishes and seafood, they must be drunk young. Particulary interesting is the Haut Benauge district, which produces good red wines and divine whites.»
