Description
Today, it is the turn of the fifth generation of the Nicolas to manage the estate, a demonstration once again of continuity and the attachment of the family to this great growth. Bertrand Nicolas and Jean-Valmy Nicolas are the joint managing directors of La Conseillante. Marielle Cazaux is the estate manager.
The Nicolas heirs are clearly identified on each bottle by the initials "LN" on the label at the centre of a shield within a silver-edged border whose four corners are sloped. The violet-coloured bottle capsule evokes the characteristic aroma of the wine. These packaging features, first chosen back in 1871 by the Nicolas brothers, remain elegant and yet modern even today.
Château La Conseillante is a member of the Union des Grands Crus and L'Académie des Vins de Bordeaux.
Tasting
This vintage was under-estimated as usual after every
outstanding year. The 2011 is nevertheless a very nice,
round, very fruity wine, which will delight your palate
even when young. It is very well balanced and is lovely
and fresh with medium body.
