Les Pagodes de Cos is made from grapes of younger vines and from parcels not used for the Grand Vin. The typical blend: Cabernet Sauvignon forms the backbone, complemented by Merlot. Aging is done in the classic Bordeaux style in barriques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the glass, a deep garnet red. On the nose, blackberry, cassis, and a hint of pencil lead—the typical Cabernet Sauvignon profile from the Graves soils of Saint-Estèphe. On the palate, medium to full-bodied, densely woven, with vibrant freshness and firmly integrated tannins. The finish is long, with a slightly mineral note lingering on the aftertaste. Ratings between 92 and 95 points from Wine Enthusiast, James Suckling, Falstaff, and Jancis Robinson (17\/20) confirm the quality of this vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Serving temperature 17–18 °C. Pairs well with côte de boeuf, braised lamb shoulder, or mature Comté cheese.
