Merchant's description

Château La Conseillante 2012 is a refined and elegant Pomerol red wine from one of the Right Bank’s most consistent estates. Located on the border of Saint-Émilion, this blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc is noted for its violet aromatics and silky texture. The 2012 vintage is particularly expressive, featuring flavours of red cherry, sandalwood and fresh tobacco with a cool, fluid finish. It is a confident, structured wine that balances power with a distinctive mineral backbone, representing the pinnacle of Pomerol sophistication.
