Quite Nice nose with mocha, tobacco, earthyness and mushroom. Unfortunately, the taste could not live up to the nose. probably indicate that this should have been consumed 2-4 years ago. However, still a decent bottle.

Nose of black berries & dark cassis fruit. Rounded tannins, fresh and splendid vigour that carries the wine with French duck with pepper & salt. Taste is smooth with dark berries & mint. Perfect drinking window now and patience rewards. 90 pts.

Coravin'ed. Dark rubis colour. On the nose, it is clearly of the Cos d'Estournel family. Open! Aromas of dark fruit with metallic overtones, coffee, slightly toasted bread and menthol. On the palate, the attack is frank but ripe with the same aromas as on the nose. Good length et fruit and coffee. Good balance, can be drunk now.
Coravin'ed. Belle robe rubis noir. Au nez, c'est la famille de Cos d'Estournel… Ouvert! Fruits noirs "métalliques", café, pain légèrement grillé et une touche de menthol. En bouche, l’attaque est franche, mais mûre, avec une continuation en bouche. Bonne longueur d’une belle finale fruitée et de café. Bon équilibre, bonne longueur. 89

Very strong, solid Bordeaux classic. Oak a bit dominant in the nose. Still to keep some years more

Plum, blueberry, vulgar oak (uncomfortable). Medium bodied, slightly unbalanced, but apreciable wine. 87
