A 2nd respected wine label of Cos D’Estournel (a 2nd Growth of the 1855 Grand Cru Classification) with a blend of Cab Sauv at 44%, Merlot at 46,2%, Cab Franc at 5,8% and Petit Verdot at 4% brings out an opulent, intense, deep, yet refined and properly-balanced red. The V’15 is perfectly poised, seductive, and extremely enjoyable. Eruptive fruity, with powerful aromatics in baked red fruits. The level of ripeness and raisins in notably persistent. Pagodes V’15 seats among my top favorites from Saint-Estèphe sub-appellation that will never disappoints and/or falls short of expectations. Cheers! — 6 days ago

Great cab, with a softer approach than many CA cabs at this price point. In TN with Don. — 2 months ago

A plush, meaty open nose. Dark plum and underbrush. Some iodine and a serious, brooding midpalate. Great balance and poise, and settled. Fantastic — 9 days ago

2016 vintage. A blend of 77% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. A pretty Médoc, drinking well. — 7 days ago

I am biased to the wines from this region and love me some garnacha from Madrid. — 4 months ago
