This is one of the best Cos d’Estournels we have tasted in recent years: a wine that has fine, precise concentration and yet a real elegance.
It broods in the glass, very dark with an inky-purple colour.
The nose has elements of pure cassis, small berries, dark fruit, cinnamon and a touch of anise.
The palate is perfectly structured: everything is in balance including the oak, tannin and fruit. It finishes long with a pleasing, fresh attack building and building into a crescendo.
