The 2018 Les Pagodes de Cos (14.51% alcohol) is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, aging in 20% new barriques. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts from the glass with bold notions of Morello cherries, blackcurrant pastilles, plum preserves and spice cake with suggestions of pencil shavings and bouquet garni. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with spicy black fruits, framed by velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering savory note.

A blend of 88% Sauvignon Blanc and 12% Semillon, aging in French oak barriques, 8% new, the 2019 Pagodes de Cos Blanc slips seductively out of the glass with alluring white peach, honey-drizzled pears and lemon tart scents plus wafts of orange blossoms and crushed rocks. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is coated with stone and citrus fruit flavors with soft acidity and a pleasant oiliness to the texture, finishing with a white pepper kick.
