Saturday, June 2, 2007 - The Wine Summit 2007: Château Cos d'Estournel - Saturday, June 2, 2007 - afternoon: deep mahogany colour – wide amber/caramel rim; broad mix of roasted nuts – tobacco – spice – chocolate caramel and dark berry fruit coming through in the bouquet; warm, black currant jam in the flavours; excellent balance, although the tannins do show in the fruit driven finish.
This was much better at dinner on Saturday – seemed more harmonious – felt the frame held the fruit better. Partnered with Jurassie, Vigneron and Marbier cheeses it proved to be another outstanding pairing.
