Rezensionen & Bewertungen
98 Robert Parker
The 2018 La Conseillante is composed of 83% Merlot and 17% Cabernet Franc, with a 3.65 pH and 14% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple colored, it needs a lot of swirling and coaxing to lure out the youthfully shy, incredible perfume of black raspberries, boysenberries, ripe plums and cinnamon toast, leading to notions of lilacs, clove oil and forest floor, plus a waft of iron ore. The medium to full-bodied palate is a jaw-dropping exercise in finesse, slowly unfurling in the mouth to reveal layer upon layer of bright, crunchy red and black fruits, supported by a rock-solid frame of firm, fine-grained tannins and tons of freshness, finishing long and with an impressive mineral and exotic spice firework display. It's an incredible expression of Pomerol that cannot fail to inspire a resounding "WOW" from whoever is fortunate to drink it. Tempting to broach now (albeit with a lot of air), try to keep your hands off it for a good 5 years and then drink it over the next 30 years or more.

A dense, layered Pomerol with lots of chocolate, walnut, and plum character. Some coffee undertones. It’s full-bodied with chewy, polished tannins and a structured, muscular finish. Solid. Elegance with power. 2018. Try after 2025.
Hersteller
Château La Conseillante
Am rechten Bordeaux-Ufer gelegen, ist das Château La Conseillante aus dem 18. Jahrhundert eins der emblematischsten in Pomerol. Seit nunmehr 150 Jahren ist es im Besitz der Familie Nicolas und seitdem – was einzigartig ist – in seiner Form unverändert. Die ursprünglichen 18 Weinbergparzellen mit insgesamt 12 Hektar grenzen an die von L’Évangile und Cheval Blanc und liegen am östlichen Rand der Appellation Pomerol. Heute sind Bertrand und Jean-Valmy gemeinsame Geschäftsführer in der fünften Generation und streben in dieser Funktion ein immer höheres Qualitätsniveau an. 2007 gaben sie den Zweitwein des Hauses heraus, Duo de Conseillante, und 2012 erfolgte die Renovierung der Weinbereitungsanlage, um jeden Weinbergertrag getrennt vinifizieren zu können. Der Grand Vin, La Conseillante, ist ein fest strukturierter Verschnitt aus Merlot und Cabernet Franc, gleichermaßen komplex wie reich an dunklen Früchten und orientalischen Gewürzen. Als einer der großen Namen in Pomerol produziert das Château La Conseillante kontinuierlich Fünf-Sterne-Weine mit viel Sinn für die Familientradition.
