Château La Conseillante, located in the prestigious Pomerol, proudly presents their 2023 vintage. Rated with an impressive score of 98-100 by William Kelley, this wine is a blend of 88% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc.
Harvest and Ripening
The 2023 harvest started on September 7 and lasted until October 2, with grapes picked plot by plot. The wine matures in 70% new French oak barrels, 27% second-year barrels and 3% in amphorae, which contributes to its complex and refined taste.
Tasting notes
Château La Conseillante 2023 reveals a striking floral bouquet of violets, lilac, raspberries, exotic spices, candied orange, pipe tobacco and rose petals. In the mouth the wine is medium to full bodied, supple and fleshy. The texture is lush and mouth-filling, with a layered core of pure, vibrant fruit framed by sweet tannins. The finish is long and precise, which contributes to the elegance and refinement of the wine.
Conclusion
The 2023 vintage of Château La Conseillante is known for its excellent concentration and fresh ripeness. The wine combines hedonistic pleasure with delicate precision and juiciness. This vintage, with its balance and harmony, will develop further after several years of maturation and reveal even more depth and complexity. The recommended drinking window is from 2028 to 2042, making this wine ideal for both direct consumption and longer aging.

One of the great wines of the vintage, and one that can rival its 2022 counterpart, the 2023 La Conseillante wafts from the glass with a strikingly floral bouquet of violets, lilac, raspberries, exotic spices, candied orange, pipe tobacco and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, supple and fleshy, its textural attack segues into a layered and enveloping core of pure, vibrant fruit framed by sweet tannins and concluding with a long, precise finish. It's a blend of 88% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc, some 30% of which is maturing in amphorae. Harvest began on September 7, lasting until October 2, block by block.
Under the direction of Marielle Cazaux, La Conseillante has only gone from strength to strength, and the 2023 stands out as one of the wines of the vintage in Bordeaux. The estate's parcels are harvested into 15-kilogram crates, spend the night in a cold room and are sorted the next day, before being vinified, parcel by parcel, with pump-overs by hand. Percentages of new oak have diminished, from 80% between 2011-2014 to only 70% from 2015 onward, but more importantly, the selection of barrels has changed, too, favoring lighter toasts—and cooler temperatures in the chai help too. Contemporary La Conseillante is an immensely sensual, seamless wine, exhibiting striking perfume and purity of fruit, and it's a strong candidate for the title of Pomerol's most elegant—and dare I say it, Burgundian—wine.

Wow. What beauty, elegance and length in this young wine, with medium body and vivid, bright acidity that gives energy and greater length. The tannins are extremely fine-grained, with an endless, silky texture. Another al-dente wine with brilliance. Goes on for minutes. 88% merlot and 12% cabernet franc.

The 2023 La Conseillante was picked from September 7, with the final Cabernet Franc brought in on October 2 at 43hL/ha. There were just six days of picking over 3.5 weeks. Matured in 70% new oak, it has a very well-defined bouquet with black cherries, wild strawberries, touches of violet and a hint of crushed stone. The palate is medium-bodied with a captivating, edgy opening. Just slightly granular in texture thanks to the tannin structure, it’s very harmonious and poised, with a sophisticated, mineral-driven finish. This is an exceptional La Conseillante from Marielle Cazaux and her team. It will rank alongside the 2022 even if it is very different stylistically.
