Melon, pear candies, wax and oil, pineapple, a striked match, some banana, mint. There is much to discover here. Fresh and voluptuous. Very tasty indeed. — 5 years ago

Lovely medium ruby color and forward fruit on the nose. Surprisingly soft on the palate - I'd have liked more tannin and acidity but the wine is charming and enjoyable — 9 years ago

Aged southern Rhône plateauing I think. Garique nose. Red fruits on the palate, a bit stewed. I notice rosebottle, figs and wild strawberries. Medium acidity keeps it al in balance. Tertiary flavours all around: sunburnt dirt, leather, smoke, some tobacco, forest leaves. Medium long finish. Lovely wine. — 5 years ago

The 2019 La Conseillante was stellar from the sample sent to "Martin Towers" in spring 2020, and the news is that there is no change in bottle. Allowed to open while gossiping away with winemaker Marielle Cazaux (you have to catch up when you are unable to see people regularly), the 2019 unveils an awesome, extraordinarily pure bouquet that seduces the senses, featuring dark cherries, blueberry, pressed violet and a touch of blood orange, all displaying wonderful delineation. The palate is medium-bodied and cohesive, with fine-grained tannins and a judicious touch of black pepper toward the finish, which fans out gloriously while maintaining a sense of class. The best La Conseillante since the 2010? No - better. (Neal Martin, Vinous, February 2022)

A fruity and lean rosé, salmon colour and wonderfully dry, moderate high acidity with notes of crushed gravel, strawberry and rose petal. Delicious. — 5 years ago

The nose could almost be a white wine with a hint of tropical fruits perhaps (I've maybe been drinking the South American reds too much as of late), however, a great dark fruit flavour with medium finish. Good balance. Easy to drink on it's own but I think would suit a peppered steak with salted fries (must try that...) — 9 years ago
