Critics’ scores and tasting notes
“An absolutely amazing wine from the Nicolas family, this is from another estate in Pomerol that is pushing the envelope to higher and higher quality. The final blend has moved to smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, now approximately 20%, with the balance 80% Merlot. Through crop-thinning, yields have been reduced to an average of 35 hectoliters per hectare. Inky bluish/purple color and stunning sweet tannins embrace a full-bodied opulent Pomerol with beautiful, floral-infused black raspberry, blueberry and cassis fruit. Full-bodied, yet elegant, this is a brilliant marriage between finesse and power. Stunningly pure, this wine can be drunk young or age magnificently for 20 or more years.”
Located in the heart of Pomerol, Château La Conseillante embodies the elegance and precision characteristic of the fine wines of this appellation. Owned by the Nicolas family since the 19th century, the estate covers 11.8 hectares of exceptional terroir, divided between grey clay, sandy gravel and red clay. This unique soil, combined with grape varieties dominated by Merlot (80%) and complemented by Cabernet Franc (20%), gives the wines remarkable depth and complexity.
