Chateau La Conseillante, Pomerol, France 2017 Alexander Valley Barrel fermented and aged in

Barrel fermented and aged in two-thirds new oak

Chewy tannins make for a dense finish

smoke and spice add aromatic nuance to this gracious

Putting your nose in here is like smelling a perfectly baked lemon-drizzle cake

Chateau La Conseillante, Pomerol, France 2017 Alexander Valley Barrel fermented and aged inMedium to deep garnet purple colored, the 2017 La Conseillante sashays out of the glass with the most gorgeous notes of lilacs, Black Forest cake, kirsch and black raspberries plus nuances of cinnamon stick, dark chocolate and licorice. Medium to full bodied, the palate has a firm, finely grained texture with bags of perfumed black fruits and wonderful freshness, finishing very long and very fragrant. 97 Pts Wine Advocate
