97 Robert Parker
Displaying spectacular aromatics of mulberry, blueberry and raspberry fruit, a dense ruby/purple color, and sweet floral notes, in the mouth the 2005 La Conseillante is not as broad and powerful as Petrus, Trotanoy, Hosanna or Lafleur, but it is gorgeously silky, elegant and stylish. This medium-bodied, savory wine is a graceful, provocative and compelling Pomerol to drink now and over the next 25 years.
97 Wine Spectator
This is decadent and wild on the nose, with fresh cèpe, raw steak and wild berry. Full-bodied, with loads of velvety tannins, yet refined and caressing in every way. A beautiful, balanced red. The best young wine ever from this producer. Best after 2017. 4,165 cases made. –JS

05: Fassprobe: Mit nur 38hl/ha der niedrigeste Ertrag seit Langem. Dunkles Granat-Lila. Wuchtiges, umwerfendes Beerenbouquet, viel Cassis, roter Johannisbeergelee, mit toller reifer Süsse unterlegt, ein zarter Veilchenton zeigt auch seine Frische. Im Gaumen rassig, tänzelnd und wiederum mit einem vollen Beerenpaket, Kokosnoten, roter Holunder, tolle Länge. Wie kann ein Wein so kraftvoll, so verspielt gleichzeitig so elegant sein? Die Tannine sind so fein, dass man seine enorme Konzentration gar nicht spürt. 07: Viel rotes und blaues Cassis, parfümiert. Elegant und tänzerisch im delikat süssen Gaumen, Kokos im Finale. trinken (2010 - 2024)
Producer
Château La Conseillante
Located on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, Château La Conseillante is one of the most emblematic properties in Pomerol. With its roots tracing back to the 1700s, La Conseillante has been under the ownership of the Nicolas family for just about 150 years, and has uniquely remained unchanged ever since. Situated on the appellation’s boundary with Saint- Émilion, bordering those of L’Évangile and Cheval Blanc, the original 18 plots of vineyards stretch across 12-hectares in eastern Pomerol. Today, fifth generation Bertrand and Jean-Valmy as the joint managing directors, carry on to pursue higher levels of excellence. In 2007, they released the estate’s second wine, Duo de Conseillante. And by 2012 they renovated their winemaking facilities to allow for separate vinification of each vineyard holding. The Grand Vin, La Conseillante is a firmly structured Merlot and Cabernet Franc blend that is equally complex and rich of dark fruits and oriental spices. One of Pomerol’s greatest names, Château La Conseillante consistently produces five-star wines with a great sense of ancestral tradition.
