A full-bodied white that’s 60% sauvignon blanc and 40% semillon. Very bright acidity with creamy wood influence. Intense kiwis, green stone fruit and guavas. Long, intense, textured and so vibrant, with a lasting, mouthwatering finish.

Lemon balm, creaminess, some waxy fruit, acacia and white peach. Lovely scents and more than just citrus. Round, layered and interesting, this has a tiny touch of pineapple giving sweetness and bitterness with peach and pear and crisp apple too. Lovely weight and focus to this. Layered and determined but with a gentle confidence. Great for the vintage, tangy, clean, pure but so alive! Really just amazing energy here. I love it. Great complexity and nuance.

The 2024 Cos d'Estournel Blanc is one of the best editions of this wine I can remember tasting. Rich and ample, the 2024 possesses notable textural richness but also a good bit of moderating vibrancy. The balance here is simply superb. Lemon confit, almond, white flowers and chalk build into the layered, resonant finish.

In contrast, the 2024 Château Cos D'Estournel Blanc is more Sauvignon Blanc-dominated and is based on 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Semillon, resting all in just 8% new oak. It's cut from the same cloth as the Pagodes and has racy citrus, lime, crushed stone, and minty, grassy nuances as well as medium-bodied richness on the palate. It's balanced and has a layered, elegant mouthfeel and outstanding length.

Pale yellow-green, silver reflections. Delicate white tropical fruit, a hint of mango and guava, floral nuances, mineral, undertones of lime zest. Medium-bodied, light- footed, fine white fruit, fresh acidity, preserved lemon on the finish, a delicate food wine with ageing potential.
