96 Robert Parker
Somewhat similar to the 1990, but slightly more structured, with more noticeable tannin and a meatier style, this is still a very perfumed, exotic, expansive, sensationally concentrated wine that should age effortlessly for another 10-15 years. In that sense, it might actually outlast the 1990, but what a pair these two wines make. The wine has a dark garnet/ruby color and fabulous aromatics of black raspberries, kirsch, licorice, and copious amounts of toasted new oak. Relatively full-bodied for a La Conseillante, with great purity, sweet tannin, but noticeable structure and muscle, this is a relatively large-scaled La Conseillante that has always been one of the top wines of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: Now-2020. Last tasted, 12/02.

Offers sweet, dried fruits on the nose, with plum jam and Turkish delight candies. Full-bodied, with big velvety tannins and loads of fruit. Chewy and Porty. Has turned so decadent and yummy over the years.—'89/'99 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2009). Drink now. –JS

Château La Conseillante
Plantée sur la Rive Droite de Bordeaux, voilà l’une des propriétés les plus emblématiques de Pomerol. Puisant ses origines au 18ème siècle, le Château La Conseillante appartient à la même famille, les Nicolas, depuis environ 150 ans, phénomène plutôt rare. Situées sur la frontière avec Saint-Emilion, mitoyennes des vignobles de L’Evangile et Cheval Blanc, les parcelles originelles de vignes s’étendent sur 12 hectares dans la partie orientale de Pomerol. Représentant la cinquième génération, Bertrand et Jean-Valmy codirigent la propriété et poursuivent la même quête d’excellence que leurs ancêtres. En 2007, ils ont lancé le second vin, Duo de Conseillante, et en 2012 ont entrepris la rénovation des installations de vinification pour permettre la vinification séparée de chaque parcelle. Le grand vin, La Conseillante, est un assemblage de merlot et de cabernet franc, doté d’une structure ferme mais aussi de complexité et d’une abondance de fruits noirs et d’épices d’Orient. Illustre représentant de Pomerol, Château La Conseillante propose chaque année des vins d’exception particulièrement fidèles aux traditions ancestrales.
