1988 Chateau Cos d'Estournel 2eme Cru Classe St. Estephe
The 1988 has an intriguing bouquet of exotic spices and black fruits. Savagely tannic in its youth, the wine has softened and developed more charm and appeal. Still deep ruby/purple in color, with little signs of age, this medium-bodied, slightly austere wine possesses good cassis fruit, excellent purity, and an elegant, classic style. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2012. 89 Points Last tasted 10/96" Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
