Chateau Cos D'Estournel Description

Chateau Cos d'Estournel Pagodes de Cos 2016 is a red wine from Bordeaux, France. The wine is made from a blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon and 31% Merlot grapes, and it has been aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.

The wine has a deep, dark color and a complex aroma of black fruits, spices, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with a silky texture and flavors of ripe blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate. The tannins are firm and well-structured, providing a long and elegant finish.

Pagodes de Cos 2016 is a wine that is meant to be enjoyed in the company of loved ones, whether it's an impromptu lunch with friends or a cozy conversation with family. It evokes the simple pleasures of life, like the taste of freshly picked fruit or the warmth of a comfortable gathering place. This wine is indulgent, comforting, and vivacious, making it a perfect choice for any occasion.

Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points

Dense and full of dark fruits, this second wine from Cos d’Estournel comes from specific parcels. With blackberry fruits and rich, generous tannins, the wine has weight and concentration. The freshness at the end is so typical of the vintage. Drink from 2023. 

Vinous Media: 92 Points

It has an intense bouquet, featuring blackberry, bilberry, light cedar and graphite aromas. 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.

Decanter: 92 Points

This is a serious wine representing 55% of the overall production, with the other 45% in Cos ('not one drop into a third wine or bulk' says director Aymeric de Gironde). Extremely dark black cassis fruits and graphite show the power of St-Estèphe clays. Fresh, bright and well structured (3.61pH, 65IPT), this is bristling with fruit and silky tannins, and may even close down for a few years. A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46.5% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 0.6% Cabernet Franc from vines averaging 35 years old, aged in 30% new oak. 

Wine Advocate: 92 Points

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.
 

Wine Spectator: 91 Points

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.
