Tasting Notes
A touch tight on the nose, though there is some depth here. Poise. Some clay Pomerol weight in the mouth and a solid core of Pomerol fruit. This is very good and should blossom with some elevage. A lovely Conseillante. Joss Fowler, FINE+RARE, April 2014.

The grand vin, the 2013 La Conseillante, is a delicious, supple wine displaying notes of violets, incense, licorice, black cherries and raspberries. Well-made and medium-bodied, but neither as deep nor concentrated as the 2009 and 2010, its soft, seductive style argue well for drinking over the next decade. Wine Advocate.August, 2014
