In a vintage that challenged many on the Right Bank, Château La Conseillante emerged with a wine that feels poised, luminous, and unmistakably Pomerol. This historic estate—bordering both Vieux Château Certan and Cheval Blanc—has long favored finesse over flash, and in 2021, that house style shines with clarity.

The blend leans on Merlot with a supporting cast of Cabernet Franc from the estate’s gravel and clay-rich soils. The result? A wine that’s supple but taut, where red fruit, violet, and a touch of pencil shavings play out over fine, filigreed tannins. There’s no excess weight here—just transparency, tension, and a sense of quiet confidence.

It’s a wine that may not grab headlines with power, but rewards close attention—more silk scarf than velvet glove. Pair it with simply roasted duck or mushroom risotto and let it unfold slowly. For lovers of La Conseillante’s signature precision, this vintage is a quiet triumph.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2021 is a super-classic La Conseillante the likes of which has not been made here in a very long time. A Pomerol of vibrancy and tension, the 2021 bristles with energy from start to finish. All the elements are so well-balanced. Aromatic and delineated, with terrific drive, the 2021 is so impressive in the early going. Dried herbs, liquorice, mocha, cassis and blackberry open beautifully. The 70% new oak is already nicely integrated. To be sure, the 2021 is nervy and taut, as most wines are in this vintage. But it's all there." —Antonio Galloni

"The 2021 La Conseillante unwinds in the glass with aromas of black raspberries and mulberries mingled with vine smoke, rose petals and spices, framed by a discreet touch of new oak. This is medium to full-bodied, suave and enveloping, with a velvety attack that segues into a layered, multidimensional palate that's framed by ultra-refined tannins and animated by ripe acids. Long and perfumed, this has turned out beautifully. It was bottled in June, seeing three rackings and a very light egg-white fining during élevage." —William Kelley

Decanter

"Iris and raspberry notes on the nose, delicately floral but fresh and lively - just shy of mouthwatering acidity - but enough to create such a lift on the first taste which has a juicy effect. The acidity is nicely balanced but this has such a gentle charm, a suaveness and sensuality to it, tannins are sleek and agile with some bitter dark chocolate and slate edges while the fruit is full of black cherry, plum and blueberry touches. But it’s the texture and the aromatic display that are so captivating - having density and weight but no heaviness." —Georgina Hindle
