Description

This magnificent bottle of 1985 Cos d'Estournel Bordeaux is a GEM that any serious collector would love to have.  The summer was hot and dry; September and October had intense sunshine.
 
Perfect harvesting, and perfectly ripe grapes. A colour only slightly developed. A powerful bouquet of red fruits, vanilla and cedar wood. A superb attack in the mouth, full of fruit, which opens out to a full structure. Fleshy. Rich and full of body.
In the eyes of Great Wines lovers, Cos d'Estournel has become the archetype of a certain style of virile elegance in which power does not exclude either grace or mildness.

 

This is a Live Event Item.
