Château Cos d'Estournel 2006 'Les Pagodes de Cos', Saint-Estèphe, Bordeaux, France

Bright aromas of cassis, licorice, violet and smoked meat. Juicy and on the lean side but with good flavor intensity and subtle sweetness. Not a fleshy style but boasts good fruit and spine. The tannins are a bit dusty and dry.
