Note di degustazione
Dry finish but masses of exciting and complex fruit on the mid palate with notes of blackcurrant. Sweet and so rich! With lots of life still in it, even in a regular 75-cl bottle.

The 1975 Cos d’Estournel is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot. It is worryingly showing a very brownish turbid color. The nose feels stewed, perhaps heavily chaptalized but it cannot disguise the vegetal note underneath. The palate is cloying on the entry with brown sugar and a touch of spice, but very volatile and bitter on the finish. Not its finest hour. Tasted at the Cos d’Estournel vertical at the property.
This is not a pretty wine. The amber-tinged color is followed by earthy, vegetal, spicy scents, and little fruit. Harsh, austere, and frightfully tannic, this hollow wine will undoubtedly keep for 20-25 years, but it will never provide any pleasure. Drink it up.
