## Description

Pagodes de Cos Vibrant, silky, seductive.

The joy and spontaneity of moments shared with those close to us.

A spontaneous lunch with friends is the perfect occasion to uncork a bottle of Pagodes de Cos. It evokes the simple pleasures of life—a homemade blackcurrant syrup, a glass of freshly picked red cherries, or a bottle of freshly opened citrus compote. Pagodes de Cos is simultaneously indulgent, comforting, and vivacious, like a relaxed conversation with family or friends in a familiar setting.

Produced in a specific terroir from vines with an average age of 40 years, Pagodes de Cos continues to establish itself as an increasingly sophisticated introduction to the style of Cos d’Estournel.

**Grapes:** 51 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 45 % Merlot, 2 % Cabernet Franc, 2 % Petit Verdot.

### Service Recommendations

Wine is a living thing. After the barrel phase, it continues to evolve in the bottle, year after year. To fully appreciate the aromas of Cos d’Estournel wines, follow a few simple guidelines.

Ideally, store the wines in a clean place at a temperature between 12 °C and 15 °C and with about 80 % humidity.

Pagodes de Cos develops complex aromas that vary with each vintage and evolve over time. Proper service allows all these qualities to express themselves fully.

- **Younger vintages (post‑2010)** should be decanted at least one hour before tasting. Oxygenation helps reveal each wine’s personality and intensity, allowing its full potential to emerge.
- **Vintages prior to 2010** should be opened about an hour before service without decanting, letting their aromas unfurl gently.

**Serving temperature:** 15 °C to 16 °C. As the wine warms in the glass, it progressively reveals its full aromatic spectrum and the most subtle, delicate nuances.
