Description

88% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc.

Marielle Cazeau and her team have produced another outstanding wine this year. Merlot is again dominant in the blend at 88%, with the remainder as Cabernet Franc. It is a joy to taste even now with strawberry, cassis and lavender on the nose. The palate is lavish yet focused, with purity of fruit, impressive structure and a remarkably long finish. Despite the richness and power, Conseillante once again retains this beautiful mineral edge and freshness, creating total balance in the wine. This is a standout wine, not only in Pomerol, but across the whole vintage.

Our score: 18.5/20

Critics reviews

Jane Anson 97/100

A punch of floral aromatics sets the scene for this gorgeous wine, and this is a brillant La Conseillante with textured powerful depths to the blueberry and blackberry fruit, laced with cocoa bean and espresso, and a fame of juicy tannins on the giving structure and lift. Easily among the most successful wines of Pomerol in the vintage. Started picking September 7 and finished October 2. 3.6ph. 3% of amphora, 43hl/h yield. 70% aged in new oak.

Drink 2030 - 2046
