Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate January - 1998
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
 The 1990 will charm tasters with its flashy display of opulent Merlot (about 40% of the blend) mixed with ripe Cabernet Sauvignon. It was one of the more forward 1990s in the tasting, which no doubt accounted for its precocious showing. This super-concentrated wine possesses a roasted herb, sweet, jammy black fruit-scented nose, with noteworthy opulence and succulence. Pure and full-bodied, this concentrated wine conceals more tannin than it is presently revealing. The wine is open, flattering, and impossible to resist.

Really lively and fragrant with much more charm than most St-Estèphes usually show. I wonder how the famous Ch Montrose 1990 would have shown? This splits the difference between the slightly demanding terroir effect and the richness of the vintage. Great balance. Slightly mineral notes. Rich, round and fruity. Clean, fresh and dense.

Popped and poured for Father’s Day, the wine is elegant, opulent, silky and fresh on the palate. The wine offers a strong cigar box and tobacco nose, along with distinctive mint and green peppery tones, with a touch of 5 spice, smoke, roasted cassis, cedar and pepper. This is fully mature. There is no reason to decant, except for sediment, or to hold any longer. It’s a gorgeous, old school expression of Cos d’Estournel this hits all the right notes.

A delicious bottle of Cos that is at its perfect peak even now at 32 years old. Layered, mellow, harmonious and subtle with much of its youthful vigor having settled into complex flavors that are giving and aromatic. Fairly long finish.

Dark color, of good intensity and evolved on the fringe. Moderately aromatic nose smelling of ripe fruit and coffee. Touches of cedar and alcohol. Tender on the attack, tasty in the middle, the wine develops tannic, spicy, with a taste of coffee. It develops taut on the palate with an astonishing fruity presence. Very tasty on the finish, it has the least dry and least woody tannins of this entire vertical tasting. Creamy and long finish. Very pleasant.

Medium ruby ??garnet, orange rim. On the nose, fine dark berry confit, herbal spice, hints of precious wood, nuances of orange zest. On the palate, powerful and very present tannins, underpinned by pleasant extract sweetness, elegantly long-lasting, mineral, subtle spice in the aftertaste, fine chocolate in the finish, a good example of how the wait is usually worth it with Bordeaux, because the wine has developed very well with maturity. - Peter Moser
