A surprisingly delicious, expansive, always fruity and charming wine, this seductive, mid-weight La Conseillante has been delicious from early in its life yet shows no signs of decline, somewhat surprising for this vintage. The wine is medium-bodied, not a blockbuster by any means, but impeccably well-balanced.
An elegant style, with dark cherry, toasty vanilla and chocolate flavors of moderate depth and intensity. Pretty aftertaste.
