Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Saturday, May 17, 2008 - 80s Bordeaux Birthday dinner (Cotes Du Rhone Bistro(Chicago, IL)): nose: very velvety and layered nose with rounded edges of barnyard, herbs, various peppers, creamy red fruit and mushroom tones. This velevty nose is what I expected from an 85 with that elegance and class that you'd want from it

taste: really velvety with a great red fruit core along with mushrooms, soy sauce, and varied pepper tones

overall: something tells me that this is easily what the beautiful 04 can turn into. There is that great exotice quality that I have come to expect from Cos along with a great aged sexiness that this bottle brings. Nice lush attack and mid palate feel that leans into a beautiful and round finish of herbs and currants
