Château Cos d'Estournel Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2010
...full-bodied, classic and built along the lines of the 2000... This wine exhibits beautifully pure notes of creme de cassis, blueberry liqueur, pen ink, graphite and hints of toast and vanillin. The wine is full and rich, and although aged in 80% new oak, the wood is a subtle background component. This beauty will take longer to round into shape than the dramatic and compelling 2009...

Cherry,dried and black; scribbles of graphite in a tinder box. Campfire smoke, and dark tobaccos brood in clusters of black currant. Glints of plum skin and baked raspberries. Cinnamon and cedar shavings. Dried cherry and black berries persist into the palate, with green peppercorns and dried violets dusted in graphite. Smoke snakes around black bread with currants, fig and black raisins. A phenomenal fall treat. That’ll do the trick! #chateauCosdEstournel #cosdestournel #saintestèphe #saintestephe #appellationsaintestèphecontrôlée #2010bordeaux #2010 #misenbouteilleálapropriété #Bordeaux #bordeauxrouge #deuxiemecru

Nano hazelnut chocolate on coffee rye, blackened sponge cake, well done steak, black sesame, lavender and baked blackberry. Well knit. Graphite glimmers on dark chocolate and cedar-oak slivers, smoky tobacco leaf, and tea. Immersive. #cosdestournel #grandcruclassé #bordeaux #stestephe #appellationsaintestephecontrolée #misenbouteilleauchateau #saintestèphe

Dark and beguiling. Slightly wild. Touch of spice. Plenty of dark fruit. Tanins now attractively supple. Very tasty. Great for right now.

Lovely bottle bouquet. Resolved. Not a lot of fruit. V. astringent. Subtle angular red fruit.

2010. Very dry tannins, assertive, plum, black cherry, mildly smoky. More aggressive than elegant. #FancyWine

It's classic. Berries, leather, pencil shavings, wet earth. Drink me now or later.

#epic #vintage that will require patience to enjoy it's full potential, deep dark purple core, ripping acidity, full body, just ripe black and blue fruit.
