Why not a triple 100’scored wine when you can have lunch with your most precious loved ones in the back yard. Duck fat fried potatoes and Gruyère melted cheese on steak supported this excellent Bordeaux. Vigorous but polished tannins combined with punchy acidity carried the dark elegant fruit to a lingering finish that led you right to the next sip.

In my last sighted review of the 2016 Cos d’Estournel, I wrote: "I suspect it will close down for a period in its youth." Perhaps it is already beginning to shut down, because though this wine was deeply impressive, it fell just a notch short of ethereal previous bottles, despite its "pixelated black fruit" on the nose and "sublime balance" on the palate. I tasted the wine twice thereafter, though this time with a 4-6 hour decant, and this revealed the Cos d'Estournel that has amazed since I first tasted it out of barrel.

the candy theme continues ~ this time dark razzles ~ and the fruit POPs! Now I appreciate what is in the glass, and not sure I’d fault it for anything, but not sure I can award it
