Critic reviews
"Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 La Conseillante has a very pretty bouquet with tarry black cherry fruit, black truffle and incense. I appreciate the focus and freshness on this Pomerol. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a keen line of acidity, very focused with plenty of freshness and tension on the finish. Maybe the best bottle of this I have encountered, this La Conseillante is well worth hunting down. Tasted February 2017."

"The 2007 La Conseillante has a more herbaceous bouquet than the 2006. This was born with less fruit intensity although there remain attractive notes of sous-bois, tobacco and just a hint of liquorish. The palate is medium-bodied with quite firm, grippy tannin. This is one of the most ferrous La Conseillante Grand Vins, well balanced if just a little brutish towards the finish, tinctures of clove and dried blood lingering on the aftertaste. It seems ready to be drunk now and should continue to give pleasure over the next 6 to 8 years as it seems to have matured a little faster than I anticipated. Tasted at La Conseillante vertical at the property."

"Dark red-ruby. Black raspberry, menthol, pepper and spices on the nose, plus a whiff of leather. Juicy and sweet but a bit youthfully tight and lacking in generosity today; I wanted a bit more dimension. In a cooler style, finishing with slightly dry-edged tannins. Just a bit pinched."
