Chateau La Conseillante Pomerol 2014 750ml










Château La Conseillante Pomerol 2014 is a wine that showcases remarkable elegance and finesse. The nose is rich with brambly red berry fruits, minerals, subtle touches of seaweed, and a hint of incense. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and a balanced, precise acidity, reflecting the terroir’s sophistication. This Pomerol offers a harmonious blend of floral and fruity notes, with violets and red berries taking center stage. The creamy, silky texture and soft tannins provide a velvety mouthfeel. While approachable now, it has great aging potential, developing more complexity and nuance over the years. Drink now or cellar for the future to enjoy its full depth.

Classical elegance in an uncompromising form, whereby the richness is beautifully interwoven with the dry tannins. The finish very long, savory and complex. A lot of delicate spicy and olive notes make this really complex.

Truffles and dark chocolate with dark fruits on the nose. Round and nicely filling, bright and buzzy, not tangy as the fruit and acidity isn't sharp or too high, this has a good sense of fun and easy enjoyment to it. Tannins are grippy and slightly salty and this has a lovely energy and focus to it. Not the most layered or plush but this has definite charm and a really easy drinability to it! Lovely. Drink today to enjoy but could be aged further.

The 2014 La Conseillante has a well-defined bouquet with brambly red berry fruit, minerals, touches of seaweed and light incense aromas that develop fine intensity in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin. This Pomerol is very well poised with perfectly judged acidity. Whilst not a match for Titans like the 1989 or 2010, this La Conseillante possesses nuance and sophistication, a precision that does justice to the name. It should be earlier-drinking that other vintages that I have tasted, though given the terroir and track record, it would not surprise me if it gives 25 years of drinking pleasure. Tasted twice with consistent notes.
