Château La Conseillante


Château La Conseillante is amongst the crème de la crème of Pomerol producers. It can trace its history back to 1735 and has been in the hands of the Nicolas family since 1874.

La Conseillante's 13 hectares of vineyards are located on a plateau in eastern Pomerol on the boundary with the St-Emilion appellation. Its vineyards border those of L`Evangile, Petit-Village, Vieux Château-Certan and Cheval Blanc.

La Conseillante is a blend of 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 5% Malbec. The grapes are harvested by hand and are then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine is then aged in small oak casks (90% new) for 18-20 months. It is bottled unfiltered.

This is one of the very few `wow' wines in 2007 with a jaw-dropping concentration, exotic richness and complexity that mark it out as one of the wines of the vintage. The 15% Cabernet Franc (along with 85% Merlot) has bestowed this Conseillante with a stunning, elegantly floral nose of blackcurrant coulis and spice. The palate is even better, with sumptuous creamy blackberries, raspberry sorbet and a lovely minerality all supported by substantial velvety tannins. Aristocratic, feminine and irresistible, this will happily age for more than 15 years. So when should you drink it? That's easy: as often as possible.

Medium-Full Bodied, Dry, Red, Merlot, For laying down, 12.5% alc.

2001 is a very good Bordeaux vintage that rivals in quality other great vintages such as 1985 or 1986. Perhaps most important of all, the 2001s provide utterly sublime current drinking - although this example will also keep for another decade should you be able to resist it now. Ch. la Conseillante is amongst the crème de la crème of Pomerol producers and one which produces a feminine, almost Burgundian style of wine. It offers aromas of sweet raspberries, terroir and toasty oak ahead of a soft, silky textured palate and an abundance of seductive fruit.  This is fabulous drinking for the price and would certainly add a little je ne sais quoi to anyone's Christmas table.

This is an exceptional Conseillante - it would be churlish to describe it as anything other than their best ever. It is velvety and refined and in style it is somewhere between Vieux Château Certan and Troplong Mondot, combining the elegance of the former with the exuberance of the latter. The finesse of the tannins combined with power and precision, texture and terroir make this reminiscent of a Grand Cru Burgundy combined with all the best bits of Pomerol. This is set to be one of the must-haves of the vintage - Make sure you pick up a case if you can!
