This grape juice is one of the best 2nd wines and 2009 was a great one. However, sitting at the adult table (Cos d'Estournel 1985-2009) it was difficult for this young gun to participate. Very close to its older brother though (2009 Cos d'Estournel).

Compared to the first wine from the same estate, it is less complex.
