2005 Château Cos d'Estournel
Community Tasting Note
MC2 Wines Likes this wine:
Saturday, May 7, 2016 - Epic night (Ruth's Chris Parsippany): I really thought this would be like the Smith Haut Lafite and too young, but it was coming into its own and seemed in a really nice spot. Not that it's not terribly young, but the decant opened up the flavors and had some great black currant, leather, clove going. Very good wine.

You may have convinced us otherwise. Of course, the reference to "Parsippany" brought back childhood memories of baseball camp so we obviously were feeling young, vivacious and ready to sample even a barely legal Cos ;-)
