Why shop with us?
Château La Conseillante 2016 is a beautifully poised Pomerol that captures everything collectors love about the appellation: refined texture, layered complexity, and unmistakable elegance. Sourced from one of Bordeaux’s most admired right-bank estates, it combines depth and precision with the kind of charm that has made the property a benchmark for generations.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a deep garnet-purple color with impressive brightness at the rim. The nose is expressive and refined, unfolding in waves of black cherry, plum, violet, cedar, graphite, and subtle spice, with a graceful floral lift that is so typical of La Conseillante.
On the palate, it is silky and concentrated, with polished tannins and a vibrant core of dark fruit balanced by freshness and mineral length. The finish is long, nuanced, and elegant, suggesting excellent aging potential; while already highly enjoyable, it should continue to evolve beautifully over the next 15-25 years.
Production
La Conseillante lies on the eastern edge of Pomerol, where gravel and clay soils help give the wines their signature combination of finesse and structure. The estate’s parcels are carefully harvested at optimum ripeness, with vinification focused on preserving purity of fruit, aromatic detail, and the naturally supple texture that defines the wine.
Food & Serving
This is a superb match for dishes that complement its finesse and depth, such as roast duck, beef tenderloin, lamb, truffle risotto, or wild mushroom dishes. Serve at 16-18°C, and decant for 1-2 hours if drinking young to allow the aromatics and texture to open fully.
Producer
Château La Conseillante is one of Pomerol’s most prestigious estates, with a history dating back to the 18th century. Known for its consistency, elegance, and distinctive floral style, the property has earned a loyal following among Bordeaux collectors and remains one of the leading names on the Right Bank.
