2005 Château Cos d'Estournel

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Friday, September 4, 2020 - nose- brambleberry, toast, brown sugar
mouth - complex, lively and exciting bitter red and dark fruits secondarily ripe flavors of dates, and coffee. lots of fruit power here, and while it drinks well now, it has years and years to go. tasted against the 05 montrose and this wine was less evolved. Hold.
