Ripe..: will this be amazing in 10 years or dead? It has some of the exotic cos stuff but it’s overripe. I wonder if it will be textured and amazing in 10 years or just a wreck

Starting the week off right with the second bottle from Chateau Cos d'Estournel the 2009 Les Pagodes de Cos. This is a blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot. On the nose there is black cherry, blackberry, plum, black currant, cassis, green bell pepper, chocolate, violets, cedar, spice, and earth. On the palate I am able to get notes of black cherry, blackberry, black plum, cassis, green bell pepper, asian spice, tobacco and earth. This a beautiful full bodied smooth fresh mouthfeel with medium + to high acidity and medium + to high mouth coating grippy sweet tannins that lead into a long dark fruit spicy earth finish. What a great way to start the week. This second bottle would be a classic first anytime. Have a great week ahead and pleas stay healthy and safe. Nostrovia!

Very attractive. Still quite tight. Leather, tar. Dark profile. Burst of spice through the finish.

Dark ruby with small garnet rim. On the nose plum, leather and wood. Resolved tannins with medium acid. Flavor is more tertiary at the beginning with some dark fruit and dark chocolate in the back. Viscous, with high abv and long finish.

Ripe red berries, a little tart, bold and a little too powerful

This is what a very good Bordeaux (majority cab) should taste like. It’s pricey but you get what you pay for.
