  Jancis Robinson
  "Really lively and fragrant with much more charm than most St-Estèphes usually show. I wonder how the famous Ch Montrose 1990 would have shown? This splits the difference between the slightly demanding terroir effect and the richness of the vintage. Great balance. Slightly mineral notes. Rich, round and fruity. Clean, fresh and dense. Very much over-delivers."

  The Wine Advocate
  "Not as concentrated as the 1982, or as most of the vintages made since 2001, the 1990 Cos has reached full maturity. It exhibits sweet berry fruit intermixed with spice box, herbs, and spring flowers. Expansive, round, and sensual, with wonderful purity as well as lushness, this irresistible wine can be enjoyed over the next 6-10 years."

  Falstaff
  "Mittleres Rubingranat, Orangerand. In der Nase feines dunkles Beerenkonfit, Kräuterwürze, Edelholzanklänge, Nuancen von Orangenzesten. Am Gaumen kraftvolle und sehr präsente Tannine, unterlegt angenehmer Extraktsüße, elegant gut anhaltend, mineralisch, dezente Würze im Nachhall, Edelschokolade im Finish, ein gutes Beispiel dafür, dass sich das Warten bei Bordeaux meistens lohnt, denn der Wein hat sich sehr gut mit der Reife entwickelt."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Fully mature, this is really showing all it has to offer at the moment. The tobacco, ash, cigar box, cherry and 5 spice nose brings you to the classic combination of cedar and cassis. Full bodied, soft and with its tannins fully integrated, this classic is ready to go."

  James Suckling
  "Refined with dark fruits with delicate spice and leather notes. It's full to medium-bodied, with fine tannins. It is a little funky. I would drink it."
