Crafted from dedicated vineyard parcels surrounding the legendary Cos d’Estournel estate, Pagodes de Cos 2017 is the refined and approachable second wine of this iconic Saint-Estèphe château. First released in 1994, it reflects the same philosophy of precision and terroir expression, offering charm, freshness, and elegance in a slightly more accessible style.
 
The 2017 vintage, shaped by a challenging year across Bordeaux, shows remarkable balance and purity. Built on a blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with small additions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the wine comes from vines averaging 35 years of age.
 
On the nose, vibrant red and black fruit aromas mingle with subtle spice and floral nuances. The palate is round and silky, delivering intense fruit, lively freshness, and a dense yet velvety mid-palate. Its energy and finesse lead to a lingering, flavoursome finish.
 
Elegant, seductive, and wonderfully drinkable, Pagodes de Cos 2017 perfectly captures the joy and spontaneity of sharing great wine, a Saint-Estèphe with both pedigree and approachability.
