LES PAGODES DE COS
Second wine from Château Cos d'Estournel
- 2024 Futures
- Saint-estèphe
Second wine of Cos d'Estournel, probably the best second wine of the Médoc after those of the first classified growths (for half or even a quarter of the price).
Vinous (A. Galloni): 91-93/100 "The 2024 Les Pagodes de Cos is terrific. Medium in body and vibrant, the 2024 is impeccable. Blackberry, spice, leather, menthol and chocolate open gradually. A wine of balance and harmony, the 2024 is super-elegant. I find the less bombastic style here vis-à-vis the past quite interesting."
Vinous (N. Martin): 90-92/100 "The 2024 Les Pagodes de Cos has quite a rich bouquet for the vintage with black cherry, hints of cassis and black olive, the latter only emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied and a little spicier than expected, with chalky tannins and a compact finish."
