Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, November 13, 2018 - Chateau La Conseillante Dinner with Marielle Cazaux (Le Cafe Descartes at the French Embassy): Very fresh and pure nose displaying blackberry, black currant, cherry, truffle, lavender, milk chocolate and limestone dust. There is a hint of green pepper which nicely adds freshness. Medium concentration, subtle finely layered pure black fruit, silky, soft and polished, bright acidity and mineral, very fine tannins and a medium to long sweet black fruit driven finish with limestone dust and caramel at the end. I find it similar to the 01, 04 and 14. Really nice food friendly wine. If you are a traditional Bordeaux lover, this will drink wonderfully for a couple more decades until the fruit is gone.
