Chateau La Conseillante 2015 Pomerol
James Suckling beschreibt den La Conseillante 2015 Pomerol am 02.02.2018 wie folgt: Aromas of tar. black olive skin and blackberries follow through to a full body.
Ultra-fine tannins and a long. linear finish with super intensity.
Well-crafted in every sense. A fabulous Pomerol for the future.
Try in 2022.
Lisa Perrotti Brown beschreibt den La Conseillante 2015 Pomerol am 21.02.2018 wie folgt: Composed of 81% Merlot and 19% Cabernet Franc and aged for 18 months in 70% new and 30% one-year-old French oak. the medium garnet-purple colored 2015 La Conseillante opens with reticent. earthy notes of dusty soil. garrigue. forest floor and iron ore with a core of warm plums. cassis. cigar boxes. star anise and dark chocolate plus a hint of violets. Medium to full-bodied with decadent fruit and a gorgeous plushness to the texture. the palate features impeccable poise and compelling depth. finishing on a lingering mineral note.
Antonio Galloni beschreibt den La Conseillante 2015 Pomerol im Februar 2018 wie folgt: Newly-arrived Technical Director Marielle Cazaux turned out a jewel of a wine at La Conseillante in 2015. her debut vintage. A polished and super-sophisticated Pomerol. La Conseillante is all class. Precise. lifted aromatics make a strong first impression. but it is the wine's overall feel and sense of harmony that truly dazzle. Over the last two years. the 2015 seems to have gained in freshness. precision and nuance. What a wine! The blend is 81% Merlot. 19% Cabernet Franc. Don't' miss it.

James Suckling beschreibt den La Conseillante 2015 Pomerol:
This is the most powerful La Conseillante I have tasted with lots of muscle and intensity. Full and savory. Chewy. Agile and formed. Beautiful ripe fruit in the center palate. This is a little pushed to the limit like the great Conseillants of the 1960s and 1970s.

Neal Martin beschreibt den La Conseillante 2015 Pomerol im April 2016:
The 2015 La Conseillante. a blend of 81% Merlot and 19% Cabernet Franc. is extraordinarily pure and elegant on the nose. Here. I find a little more red fruit than black fruit. extremely elegant and articulating the terroir with great clarity. At first. wild strawberry and cranberry. then crushed stone. a touch of black truffle and tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied. fresh and elegant with fine tannin on the entry. This is one of the most approachable La Conseillante wines that I have tasted in barrel. the acidity very well judged. "classic" in style. good backbone here with a structured finish. It does not quite possess the bravura of the 2010 La Conseillante and I would agree with winemaker Marielle Cazaux that it bears more semblances to the 2005 La Conseillante at this stage. and even bore common traits with its neighbour. Vieux Château Certan. This is an intellectual and to put it prosaically. "delicious" La Conseillante.

Lush notes of dark fig. boysenberry and blackberry pâte de fruit glide over ample but velvety tannins. with suave black tea and ganache accents. This is long and should be gorgeous when finished. Score range: 93-96

81 % Merlot. 19 % Cabernet Franc. Selten hatte ein La Consteillante als Fassprobe eine solch dunkle Farbe. Sattes Purpur-Granat. dicht in der Mitte. lila Schimmer aussen. Wunderbares Brombeer-Schokobouquet. weit ausladend und mit schönen Würzkomponenten. Im Gaumen merkt man den floralen Part des Cabernet Franc. samtene Textur. eine wunderschöne. malzige Süsse im füllig-schmelzigen Extrakt aufzeigend. elegant ausklingend. Er könnte noch einen Punkt zulegen mit der Reife.
