Duo Conseillante other_regions (from La Pièce Sous leThe 2012 Duo de Conseillante is much better than the 2011, lively, vivacious red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit, a touch of sous bois and cigar humidor. I like the delineation here. The palate is medium bodied with a gentle grip on the entry.
