About Cos d'Estournel

86-88 Points | International Wine Cellar , May/June 2007
(a 50/50 blend of cabernet sauvignon and merlot) Bright, deep ruby-red. Bright aromas of cassis, licorice, violet and smoked meat. Juicy and on the lean side but with good flavor intensity and subtle sweetness. Not a fleshy style but boasts good fruit and spine. The tannins are a bit dusty and dry.
