Over het wijnhuis | Château Cos d'Estournel is een 2e Grand Cru Classé, gevestigd in Saint-Estèphe en behoort bij de top van Bordeaux. Cos d'Estournel springt er uit - in meerdere opzichten. Niet alleen worden de wijnen steevast geprezen in de pers, ook het landgoed is er één die je niet snel vergeet. Het bijzondere bouwwerk doet meer denken aan een Oosterse tempel dan aan een Middeleeuws, Frans wijnkasteel. |

Awards | "The 2016 Les Pagodes de Cos is blended of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46.5% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 0.5% Cabernet Franc. It has a deep garnet-purple color and opens with notions of warm cassis, black cherries and smoked meats giving way to scents of charcoal, underbrush and cloves plus a waft of new leather. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with generous black fruits and some compelling red fruit sparks, supported by ripe, grainy tannins and finishing long and spicy." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "A red with very deep and intense fruit character, yet rich tannins to back it all up. Full-bodied, layered and powerful. The second wine of Cos d’Estournel is serious again in 2016. Try from 2025." - James Suckling "The 2016 Les Pagodes de Cos is matured in 30% new oak. It has an intense bouquet for a deuxième vin, featuring blackberry, bilberry, light cedar and graphite aromas, quite Pauillac in style. The medium-bodied palate is fresh and vigorous though not deep, displaying fine tannin and exerting a gentle grip. There is a symmetry about this Les Pagodes, which is longer than other vintages, with just a hint of graphite and cracked black pepper on the finish. Excellent. 13.02% alcohol." - Vinous "This has good energy, with a light briar note through the mix of raspberry, plum and cherry paste flavors. Subtle chalk and iron streaks add texture and cut on the finish. Best from 2021 through 2031. 18,333 cases made." - Wine Spectator |
