Les Pagodes de Cos 2024 – Saint-Estèphe

The nose is racy, frank, fresh and offers a lovely finesse in the power of the grain. It reveals notes of wild cassis, violet and small notes of small bright juniper berries, associated with touches of lilac, roasted-juicy red berries, as well as a hint of cornflower, black pepper, black tea and a hint of almost incense. The palate is well-built, juicy, fruity, fresh, mineral and offers a fresh/tangy frame, brightness and juiciness. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of juicy/pulpy cassis, fairly ripe red cherry, and small notes of violet, combined with touches of small brilliant red berries, cornflower, graphene, tonka bean, as well as a subtle hint of cornflower. It also presents notes of pulpy/juicy cassis, juicy red cherry and small notes of bright raspberry, combined with a touch of juicy/bright red plum, as well as hints of licorice stick, flowers, cornflower, jellied redcurrant, a subtle hint of toasted, tonka bean and toasted almond. Good length. The tannins are sapid, mellow, fine, structuring and finely firm. Good gourmandise and definition. A wine offering lovely freshness and aromatic depth. Chiselled, brilliant structure with a graphene-like side.
