Located in the heart of Pomerol, on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, Château La Conseillante has a reputation for consistently excellent, ageworthy wines.

No stranger to acclaim, the Château’s Grand Vin is the recipient of a steady flow of awards, including many for this extraordinary 2018 release (see below).
A classic, barrel-aged, Merlot-dominant blend, it becomes more and more elegant the longer it catches air, with a plush texture that’s lifted perfectly by the inclusion of Cabernet Franc.
