2010 was an incredible vintage in Bordeaux and this is a towering effort from Saint-Estèphe estate, Cos d’Estournel. Composed of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot it is immensely complex, concentrated and muscular, with exceptionally tightly-wound tannins, deep layers of fruit and delicious savoury nuances. Perhaps a little young still, this has an incredibly long and distinguished life ahead of it.
