Cos d’Estournel 2019

TASTING NOTE BY MSQ

【夾雜神秘東方色彩嘅超二級 Cos d’Estournel】

帶東方色彩嘅愛士圖爾Cos d’Estournel~

好多波爾多酒莊嘅建築風格都係傳統嘅歐陸式，行優雅，莊嚴等路線。但Cos d’Estournel原莊主覺得有一座特別嘅城堡會令酒莊魅力大增，所以佢以 《一千零一夜》為設計靈感，係城堡上加以印度大象，蘇丹木雕門等等，增添一份神秘東方味。

除咗外型睇得，佢地品質都係非常之 Impressive，之前Robert Parker講過，係佢心目中Cos d’Estournel已係等同一級嘅水準，以味道濃郁強勁並有層次為特色，陳年潛力亦好出眾!

TASTING NOTE BY WINE CRITICS

The 2019 Cos d’Estournel has turned out brilliantly, exhibiting aromas of minty cassis, sweet wild berries and wild plums mingled with hints of spices, loamy soil and potpourri. Full-bodied, broad and enveloping, it’s polished and seamless, its ample chassis of fine, velvety tannin entirely concealed in its deep core of succulent, crunchy fruit. Beautifully integrated at this early stage, the last decade has witnessed a number of changes at this address, including a trend toward less aggressively late picking, cooler fermentations and élevage with fewer rackings and more moderate percentages of less heavily toasted new oak: in 2019, the results speak for themselves.
