Wine Critic Reviews
Wine AdvocateRobert Parker
Their second wine, the 2012 Les Pagodes de Cos (60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot), exhibits soft tannins, a deep ruby/purple color, sweet plum, black cherry fruit, a round, generous mouthfeel and excellent purity and depth. This is a very up-front and consumer-friendly second wine to drink over the next decade.

The 2012 Pagodes de Cos has a light bouquet with blackberry and raspberry fruit, soy and confit-like aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with furry tannins, quite ferrous in style, though like the 2012 Les Ormes de Pez, it feels a little dry and charmless on the finish. Tasted blind at the Southwold Ten-Year On tasting.
