Château Cos d'Estournel Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 1988
Beautiful aromas of fresh herbs, such as tarragon and mint, with berry and cherry undertones. Medium- to full-bodied, with fine tannins that are polished and very pretty. Caressing finish. Wine Spectator

Drunk review 5: this tastes bushy. I know this, because I’ve been pushed into bushes. Blackberry, cardamon. Airy, woodsy aftertaste. Super enjoyable. Would pair this with pets for a Brittany dog, a English Setter, or a Norwegian Elk hound— a dog that enjoys navigating the woods.

Easy to drink and smooth. Baking spices are the star here— cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom (slightly). Cranberry is second. I want to drink this on some rocky European coast in the fall— like small, cute rocks. Not a Californian craggy coast. And there is a cute town there, too. Pair this while petting a Saluki.

Quite a spicy Cos. This will likely not improve with more time but very nice now nonetheless #cos #bordeaux #stestephe

Not the most pristine bottle but still showing well. I guessed it was an early 80s!

Still very dense and concentrated. Lasting impression: incredibly focused, and culminating with a complex, powerful, long, evolving close.

Lacking a nose and any finish. No depth or complexity. Dull. Some slight bitterness

So elegant and gentlemanly! The opposite of the crass 2011 in the oversized, napa style bottle.
