Chateau La Conseillante, Pomerol, France 2017 Champagne Michel Mailliard raspberry and kirsch linger onMedium to deep garnet purple colored, the 2017 La Conseillante sashays out of the glass with the most gorgeous notes of lilacs, Black Forest cake, kirsch and black raspberries plus nuances of cinnamon stick, dark chocolate and licorice. Medium to full bodied, the palate has a firm, finely grained texture with bags of perfumed black fruits and wonderful freshness, finishing very long and very fragrant. 97 Pts Wine Advocate
