"Another utterly brilliant wine from this team, the 2020 Château La Conseillante is based on 87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc that saw 70% new French oak. Unquestionably in the same league as the 2019, this beauty offers an incredible bouquet of pure blue fruits, cassis, violets, spring flowers, and truffle. This carries to a full-bodied, seamless, incredibly elegant, layered Pomerol offering perfect tannins, the vibrant, focused, structured style of the vintage, impeccable balance, and a gorgeous finish. As always, this wine is more about purity, finesse, and elegance than power. It offers pleasure even today yet should be given a decade in the cellar, and it will be a 40- to 50-year wine.

lending a touch of black pepper. The palate is medium-bodied with a

saline entry, here, the Merlot taking over the steering wheel, fresh and

saline, a discreet touch of white pepper mixed with sage and a hint of

graphite. Quite persistent in the mouth yet I feel this might close up for a

time in bottle. It's quite a serious wine, less flamboyant than the previous

vintage, one for hardcore Pomerol aficionados. This is a La Conseillante for

long-term ageing. Superb.
