The name Conseillante appears from the middle of the eighteenth century. It was bequeathed by a influential person who ran the property 300 years ago soon: Catherine Conseillan. The Conseillante of Saint-Emilion, Pomerol on the board with a clay and gravel with iron in the dirt basement, wine comes from vines which certainly enhances Merlot (70%) but the Cabernet Franc, with 25%, gives the wines a freshness, complexity and richness special. The purple cap with his Conseillante recalls for its characteristic aroma of the raw. These elements selected in 1871 by brothers Nicolas remain an elegant modernity at the dawn of the XXI Century.

(01-2003) A surprisingly delicious, expansive, always fruity and charming wine, this seductive, mid-weight La Conseillante has been delicious from early in its life yet shows no signs of decline, somewhat surprising for this vintage. The wine is medium-bodied, not a blockbuster by any means, but impeccably well-balanced. Drink it up.
(05-1990) An elegant style, with dark cherry, toasty vanilla and chocolate flavors of moderate depth and intensity. Pretty aftertaste.
(1990) Very good for a 1987.
