About this wine
La Conseillante is one of the most elegant and aromatic wines of Pomerol, made mainly from Merlot with a substantial share of Cabernet Franc. Its hallmarks are a silky, velvety texture, violet and red-fruit perfume and great finesse. It can be enjoyed relatively young, yet the best vintages age gracefully for twenty-five years or more.
About La Conseillante
Château La Conseillante lies on the eastern edge of the Pomerol plateau, bordering Cheval Blanc and L'Évangile. It has belonged to the Nicolas family since 1871, one of the longest unbroken family ownerships in Bordeaux, and its bottles are recognised by their distinctive violet capsule.
The vineyard's mix of clay, gravel and sand is planted mainly with Merlot alongside a significant share of Cabernet Franc. La Conseillante is prized for its perfume, silky texture and elegance, qualities often compared with those of its neighbour Cheval Blanc.
