Description

The harmony and freshness of a great Pomerol

The estate
A true legend of the Pomerol appellation, the Château La Conseillante is one of the most beautiful references of the Right Bank, in the Bordeaux region. Entered into the fold of the Nicolas family in 1871, Château La Conseillante has crossed the centuries by shining with its exceptional crus.

The vineyard
The 11.8 hectares of the prestigious Château La Conseillante vineyard are planted on grey clay and sandy gravel soils in the heart of Pomerol. The vines are about 35 years old.

The vintage
After the heavy rainfall in the first half of 2018, the beautiful summer set in from mid-July. The sun shone until the harvest date with a superb Indian summer. The harvested berries showed a very beautiful maturity, thick skins and full of polyphenols, promising exceptional quality for this 2018 vintage. Gentle extractions were favored to obtain a powdery tannin grain.

Vinification and aging
Aging of 18 months in barrels of one wine (27%) and in amphorae (3%).

Grapes
Merlot (83%) and cabernet franc (17%).






Characteristics and tasting advice for Château La Conseillante 2018

Tasting

Nose
With an exceptional aromatic expression, the aromatic bouquet is marked by intense notes of ripe black fruits, blueberries, blackcurrants evolving on spicy notes. Elegant floral notes chisel the nose on aeration.

Palate
Delicious and fleshy, the palate unfolds a delicious and concentrated structure, with coated tannins presenting a delicious powdery grain. Vibrating with a lively energy and a beautiful tension, the mid-palate sublimates the expression of the fruit by stretching in the length of a sparklingly fresh finish. A magnificent vintage of Château La Conseillante that expresses all the greatness of its birth terroir, promising a very high aging potential.
