{"product_id":"chateau-la-conseillante-pomerol-1995-1-bottle-distressed-label","title":"Chateau La Conseillante, Pomerol, 1995 (1 bottle distressed label)","description":"A thirty-year-old bottle from Pomerol's elegance specialist, a house that made its name on finesse, a soft texture and a perfume of violets and truffles rather than sheer muscle. By the estate's own account, the wine picks up the black truffle aromas typical of great plateau Merlot after about ten years in bottle, and a 1995 has had three times that long. The style starts in the ground: 60% grey clay and 40% sandy gravel over subsoils streaked with iron oxide, in a vineyard that sits partly on the Pomerol plateau and partly across the line in Saint-Émilion. The Nicolas family has owned La Conseillante since 1871. From 1971 to 2003 the cousins Francis and Bernard Nicolas ran it together and built new cellars that made the winemaking more precise. A fun detail for label-watchers: Louis Nicolas designed that label himself, with its cut-off corners, silver frame and an 'N' in the centre, and he gave the bottle its violet capsule. This is a single bottle and its label is distressed, so it's one for opening rather than showing off, which is how a bottle like this should end up anyway.","brand":"Private","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047936098361,"sku":"NYC-[PVT]-NC11026-110226-50-B-9","price":259.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Chateau-La-Conseillante-Pomerol-1995-1-bottle-distressed-label-Red-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1793696458","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/chateau-la-conseillante-pomerol-1995-1-bottle-distressed-label","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
