Description
Chateau Cos d'Estournel 1985St. Estephe
4bn, 3ts, 3vhs, owc
Bottle (12)
"The 1985 from cask could have been a lighter version of the 1982 and 1953 vintages. Forward, with a fabulously scented bouquet of pain grille and concentrated red and black fruits (especially black cherries), it is rich, lush, long, and medium to full-bodied. Very fragrant, with gobs of sweet black fruits, minerals, and spice in both its flavors and aromatics, this is one of the most forward wines from Cos." (93 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Dec. 1997)
"The 1985 Cos D'Estournel is another vintage that I have not encountered for a number of years. It is mature with wide bricking on the rim. The nose is not profound or intellectual, but it is engaging and involving with scents of warm gravel, terracotta-like scents that marry perfectly with the melted red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, crisp acidity and slightly grainy in texture. Savory in the mouth with hints of cooked meat, sage and black pepper towards the finish. This is just a Saint Estephe that I want to drink and drink more of." (93 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, Feb. 2018)
