Merchant's description
Château La Conseillante is a family-owned property situated in Pomerol. The estate is made up of a patchwork of sixteen vineyard plots, the oldest of which was planted in 1958. 1998 was the greatest vintage for Merlot-dominated wines since 1990 and the quality of the Saint-Emilions and Pomerols is outstanding.
