Description

Wine Advocate # 183
Jun 2009 Robert Parker 94 Drink: 2009 - 2019
Not as concentrated as the 1982, or as most of the vintages made since 2001, the 1990 Cos has reached full maturity. It exhibits sweet berry fruit intermixed with spice box, herbs, and spring flowers. Expansive, round, and sensual, with wonderful purity as well as lushness, this irresistible wine can be enjoyed over the next 6-10 years.

Feb 1997 Robert Parker 95 Drink: 1997 - 2017
In contrast to the 1989, the 1990 is a spectacular wine, and, along with the 1986, 1982, and 1953, one of the four finest Cos d'Estournels made in the post-World War II era. Bruno Prats believes it is the finest wine he has ever made. In the most recent tasting, the 1990 was even better than in the past, charming me as well as other 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. It will continue to mature for 15-20 years.

The 1990 will charm tasters with its flashy display of opulent Merlot (about 40% of the blend) mixed with ripe Cabernet Sauvignon.

Aug 1993 Robert Parker 90 Drink: 1996 - 2012
The deep ruby/purple-colored 1990 offers a moderately intense bouquet of pure black-raspberry fruit wrapped nicely in toasty new oak. Rich, concentrated, and similar in style to the opulent 1985, this impressively made, well-structured wine should provide fine near-term drinking, yet evolve gracefully for several decades. Anticipated maturity: 1996-2012. Last tasted, 7/93.

The deep ruby/purple-colored 1990 offers a moderately intense bouquet of pure black-raspberry fruit wrapped nicely in toasty new oak. Rich, concentrated, and similar in style to the opulent 1985, this impressively made, well-structured wine should provide fine near-term drinking, yet evolve gracefully for several decades. Anticipated maturity: 1996-2012.

Jun 1992 Robert Parker (90-92) Drink: 1996 - 2012
Over the long-term, I feel this effort from Cos d'Estournel will surpass the 1988 and 1989, but not the 1982, 1985, or 1986. Deep ruby/purple in color, it offers a moderately intense bouquet of pure black-raspberry fruit wrapped nicely in toasty new oak. Rich, concentrated, and similar in style to the opulent 1985, this impressively made, well-structured wine should provide fine near-term drinking yet evolve gracefully for several decades. Anticipated maturity: 1996-2012.
