1985 Bordeaux Collection
Grab twelve bottles of fantastic 1985 Bordeaux. Six bottles each of 1985 Cos d'Estournel and 1985 Chateau Lynch Bages. The '85 Cos d'Estournel is forward, with a fabulously scented bouquet of pain grille and concentrated red and black fruits (especially black cherries). It is rich, lush, long, and medium to full-bodied. Very fragrant, with gobs of sweet black fruits, minerals, and spice in both its flavors and aromatics, this is one of the most forward wines from Cos. The '85 Lynch Bages has been totally disarming, seductive, and sexy since birth. Its corpulence, medium to full-bodied personality, low acidity, attractive silkiness, and copious quantities of herb-tinged cassis fruit have always made this wine a winner.
