The vineyard is situated in the east of the appellation on the border with Saint-Émilion and adjoining properties include Château L'Évangile and Vieux Château Certan in Pomerol, and Cheval Blanc in Saint-Émilion to the southeast. The La Conseillante estate is planted on predominantly clay-based soil and the vineyard consists of 80 percent Merlot, with 20 percent Cabernet Franc in more gravelly areas. The grand vin blend typically reflects these proportions. La Conseillante has modern winemaking facilities, including a spectacular oval vat hall with new epoxy-lined, temperature-controlled concrete vats varying in size to correspond to plots in the vineyard. Grapes undergo a cold soak for up to four days, followed by alcoholic fermentation with one or two weeks on skins. The grand vin is aged in barrel for 18 months on average, with 50-80 percent new oak depending on vintage. Careful racking with bellows pumps and egg white fining allows the wines to be bottled unfiltered. In 2007, the château launched its second wine, Duo de Conseillante, sourced from younger vines, and featuring up 95 percent Merlot. It sees 12 months in French oak barrels (50 percent new) and six months in tank before bottling. Château La Conseillante dates back to the mid-18th Century, when it was managed by local businesswoman Catherine Conseillan, after whom it was named. It has been owned by the Nicolas family since 1871.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-08T16:38:43-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-24T06:51:43-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","LK2402","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Château La Conseillante","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Bestofwines0223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":59899,"price_min":59899,"price_max":59899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42801682514058,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2015 | Château La Conseillante | Pomerol","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":59899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_bce85e88-baf4-42c4-8c3d-0050f96cc62e.jpg?v=1677239528"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_bce85e88-baf4-42c4-8c3d-0050f96cc62e.jpg?v=1677239528","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2015 | Château La Conseillante | Pomerol at CaskCartel.com","id":24283403780234,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.402,"height":650,"width":261,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_bce85e88-baf4-42c4-8c3d-0050f96cc62e.jpg?v=1677239528"},"aspect_ratio":0.402,"height":650,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/24_bce85e88-baf4-42c4-8c3d-0050f96cc62e.jpg?v=1677239528","width":261}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2015 | Château La Conseillante | Pomerol\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarl Grey tea, singed apple wood and warm fruitcake aromas opening slowly ahead of a core of dark boysenberry, raspberry and blackberry compote flavors.
