Cos d'Estournel 1996 (750ml) Costieres de Nimes Strong aromas on the noseA brilliant year for Left Bank Bordeaux. This was stubborn in its youth and took time to open, but now stands as one of the great all time vintages of Cos, in my opinion. It delivers still, at 25 years old, just utterly delicious, with complex slate, pencil lead, graphite, undergrowth, black truffle flavours and a crushed mint finish. It is still juicy, with perfectly integrated fine tannins and a ton of personality. Critical Acclaim 98 points
