Tasting notes
Aroma
Raspberry, red cherry, and mulberry laced with violets, rose petals, and warm exotic spice — the florals never let up.
Palate
Sensual, satiny, and incredibly vibrant. A deep, pure core of red fruit is framed by elegant, powdery tannins, driving toward a long, extravagantly floral finish of striking sophistication.

Coming straight from Bordeaux with perfect provenance, this is not just 95% less than Petrus, but the best price in the nation! Value propositions don’t get clearer than this.
Pomerol never bothered with a classification system, but it hardly needs one: There’s Petrus, and there are the few wines that can compete with it. La Conseillante has answered that test for well over a century under one family, the Nicolas clan, who bought the 12-hectare vineyard in 1871 and have run it across five generations.
The wine’s signature is unmistakable: a violet-and-rose perfume lifting off silk-textured fruit, the kind of wine that makes "elegance" sound like an understatement. Crafted by director Marielle Cazaux, under the watchful eye of recently departed legend Michel Rolland, the 2020 comprises 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. After 16 months in 70% new French oak and several years in bottle, it’s showing beautifully—beautifully enough to be deemed perfect by the world’s most respected publication.
It’s your move. Cheers to those who cellar this stunner.
