Château La Conseillante Pomerol 2009
Creamy, deep, textured and nuanced, and after 12 years the terroir is stepping up and taking control. Soft leather notes, tobacco, soot, crème caramel, raspberry and soft strawberry puree. This is pretty much ready to drink, opulent and impressive but a little more evolved than other 2009 Pomerols that I have tasted recently. It may be bottle variation,but I would definitely suggest enjoying the exuberance of this in the next 5 to 10 years and leave the 2010 for the real time in the cellar. 100% new oak. Harvest September 14 to 38.
