Château La Conseillante 2017 – Pomerol

The nose is fresh, fruity and offers a good freshness, a beautiful finesse of the grain, complexity as well as a fine richness/deepness. It reveals notes of fleshy blackberry, fleshy strawberry and small notes of violet, fresh cornflower associated with small fine touches of fleshy blueberry, crunchy raspberry as well as fine hints of Cuben pepper, lilac and a subtle hint of spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, elegant and offers a mineral frame, a good definition, gourmandize, precision, an almost saline minerality as well as tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/fresh blackberry, juicy/fresh cassis and small notes of raspberry associated with fine hints of caramelization, toasted and nutmeg. Tannins are fines, elegant and structuring. Very discreet hints of chocolate and hazelnut on the persistence/finish.
