Tasting notes
The 2010 Duo de Conseillante has a stricter and less fruit-driven bouquet compared to the 2009: more black fruit here augmented by veins of liquorice. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, a little austere in the mouth with a foursquare, almost Médoc-like finish. Personally, I find that the 2009 Duo is maturing better. Tasted at La Conseillante vertical at the property.
