1989 Cos d'Estournel Saint Estephe
Served double blind, but this bottle made me proud, I managed to get the label correctly based on my observation, except that I was off with the vintage. Nose was really muted initially but opened up slowly thereafter with tea leaves and milk chocolate. At this point I was pretty sure it was Cos! Double confirmed on the palette with bright red fruits, too young and most important character chocolate. Of course we get chocolate in Margaux as well but the nose of tea leaves was the giveaway as St. Estephe :)
