Description
Château La Conseillante 1982
Pomerol
u. 7bn, 4vts, good color and clarity, soiled and slightly stained labels, very slightly corroded capsules, damaged owc lid
Last drunk on Valentine's Day 2014 from our own en primeur stock. On the nose, I thought it was a First Growth, until it dawned on me that it came from a region with no classification - Pomerol! The overpowering intensity and spiciness are awe-inspiring. So complex and multi-dimensional. Sumptuous on the palate, irony and voluptuous. Blackcurrant and cinnamon, with a hint of black liquorice. The vigour of this wine is extraordinary. Better than it has ever been - and I felt the Malbec here at the time. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
