1998 Château La Conseillante, Pomerol

Pomerol royalty. Here, merlot-dominant wines revered for their elegance, texture and complexity. Located on the region's famed plateau, Conseillante's vineyards render cuvées bursting with intense violet, truffle, and ripe, red and dark fruit. Wines that evolve beautifully with age. Such that over twenty years on, the 1998 'continues to stake its claim as the best wine of that decade.' (Neal Martin)
