Tasting Notes
Wonderful definition of fruit on the nose with very fine, integrated tannins which blend seamlessly with bright blueberry, plum and cassis fruit flavours. A bright, refreshing acidity runs through to the finish. Over-all extremely elegant, harmonious and enticing with plenty in reserve. Drink 2020 - 2035Reviews & Scores
A brilliant effort from this property, known for the sheer elegance and finesse of its wines, the 2010 La Conseillante offers back-to-back monumental efforts, particularly given the remarkable 2009. This estate has been on a hot streak of late. The 2010 is a slightly bigger, richer wine, but without losing its floral, elegant mulberry, black raspberry and sweet kirsch notes. Combine those with some licorice, subtle new oak and a hint of forest floor, and the result is a medium to full-bodied, rich, complex wine that has striking aromatics and perfect balance in the mouth. Forget it for 3-5 years and drink it over the following 30.Score: 96
