Ch. La Conseillante (0.75 L)

NM: Tasted at Bordeaux Indexí»s í 10-Year Oní€ tasting in London. Comparing the La Conseillante to the Lí»Evangile, the former has a riper, more voluminous bouquet with fruitcake, raisin and dried herbs aromas that demonstrate good vigour, if not great nuance. The palate is medium-bodied with low acidity, supple and rounded tannins that lend it a plush mouthfeel, especially compared to its aforementioned neighbour. The finish is high toned and forward with hints of white pepper and spice, although it does not relate the essence of the terroir with the same clarity as say, the 2004. Tasted March 2013.
