The 2010 La Conseillante has been spellbinding since I first tasted it from barrel. It has an intense nose with black plum, cedar and graphite. It is vibrant and compelling with scents of camphor intertwined. Wonderful delineation; there are layers of aromatic complexity. The palate is beautifully knit with a touch of black pepper and thyme filtering through the black fruit. It retains so much energy on the finish as it fans out with class and verve. Magnificent. Tasted from an ex-château bottle at the Icons of Bordeaux dinner at Legacy Records in New York. (Neal Martin, Vinous, May 2024)

Suppose we already know this, but the 10 really is excellent. Amazon tannic structure and balance, precise but explosive. Really excellent.

Bright red fruits good structure and elegance. Typical Pomerol truffle earthy notes. Graphite and orange peel round it out nicely. There is good depth of fruit and spice. Should be long lived.

(17.5/20) Вино с насыщенным ароматом черники, черешни и сырого мяса с нотами черного шоколада. Умеренная кислотность и мягкие, обволакивающие танины. Во вкусе чернослив и шоколад со специями. Продолжительное послевкусие. Отлично!

2010 vintage. 14.5% Abv. 80% merlot and 20% cab franc. (Same as for 2009 vintage.). Deep ruby. Pronounced. Lean and angular. Tobacco leaf, medicinal cherry and savoury spice. Depth of fruit and medium plus acidity. Medium, integrated /soft tannin. 90% new oak. Long finish. A great wine in the making.
