A very good 1966, yet not top flight, the Cos d'Estournel is medium to dark ruby, with some browning. It has very good concentration in the somewhat lean, austere character of the vintage, and plenty of tannin in the finish. Although it does not yet seem to be mature, I would drink it over the near term before the fruit begins to fade. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 10/84.

A classic vintage for Gruaud-Larose, the 1966 remains surprisingly young, relatively unevolved, but austere, with a black currant, cedary, earthy fruitiness, and firm tannins. The finish is dry, but long and still youthful. In style and texture, the 1966 Gruaud-Larose resembles a big Pauillac. Will the 1966 Gruaud-Larose ever shed its tannic toughness? Anticipated maturity: Now-2015. Last tasted, 1/89.
