1977 Cos d'Estournel Saint Estephe

When a vintage was hit with frost, the result was a disaster. Not many chateaus produced quality wines, so it was forgiven if the wine can survive and still drinkable. Nose of faint tea leaves and very slight hint of chocolate. Content was fairly hopeless, very light, faint and fading fruits. Badly diluted but still acceptable for my expectation.
当一个年分结严重的冰霜，对于波尔多葡萄酒产区来说是个灾难，很少有酒庄可以酿出酒来，更不用说可以维持41年的陈年了！鼻子有淡淡的茶叶味，还有一丁点的巧克力味。内容非常失望，淡，轻飘，清汤寡水，还有接近消失的果味。虽然带有浓厚的水份，但是我了解这是自然的法则，不是人为的因素，所以我可以接受。
