justerini & brooks tasting note

After a disappointing few vintages, Conseillante is back with a bang. We have a soft spot for this Chateau, and we know their excellent terroir at the heart of the plateau of Pomerol is capable of producing really top quality wines. The 2016 is a dramatic return to form. Produced from 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, this inky coloured Conseillante is packed with aromas of sweet plums, violets, loganberries and pure cassis. The fruit is really seductive and finely textured with just enough glycerine and density, but never being heavy or thick. This is a modern, polished example packed with blackcurrant jam notes. Sexy and slick with refined tannins and a nice saline finish. The best Conseillante in years!
