Chateau Cos d'Estournel 2016 Saint-Estephe
偉大な年が刻んだ、緻密なサン・テステフ。
メドック格付け第2級、サン・テステフ。カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン76%を軸にした2016年です。深いルビーレッドの色調から、ブラックベリーやカシスの濃厚な黒果実に、スパイス、リコリス、杉、ほのかな土のニュアンスが絡み合います。力強さと緻密さが同居し、シルキーなタンニンが骨格を描き、樽由来のヴァニラとトースト香が果実の凝縮感と調和。仔羊のローストや牛フィレのグリルとともに。
Tasting note
Deep ruby red in color. The aroma is a complex interplay of rich black fruits such as blackberry and cassis with spices, licorice, cedar, and subtle earthy nuances. On the palate, the powerful and dense structure unfolds, and the silky tannins smoothly envelop the tongue. The concentrated fruit flavor harmonizes with the vanilla and toasty aromas from the casks, leading to a long, elegant finish. This wine has great aging potential and will continue to grow in appeal even after decades of aging.
Food pairing
Roast lamb, grilled beef fillet with red wine sauce, duck confit with lentils
