La Conseillante 2008

AOC Pomerol. One of the big and important names of the Right bank. Really amazing nose - fruity, minty, grassy all interplaying and flirting w your senses....V fresh and complex. Bodes well. The minty flavors continue onto the palate. Refinement and balance are the dominant themes. Smooth, carefully calibrated mouthfeel but some bitter tannins kicked in at the end, showing its youth. Long, satisfying finish that lingers on (9.0/10).
