Getting to know Chateau La Conseillante



Chateau La Conseillante was one of the favourite wines for me and my wife, until a recent dinner which has disappointed us. In fact we love La Conseillante 1996 so much that we are still pacing ourselves through the three cases we bought some 10 years ago. It was a wine that was recommended to us at a shop, not the 1996 vintage but I think the 1993. We bought a bottle and loved it, but it did show up the meat we had with it as being of an inferior kind (That however belongs to another tidbit). I think we must have tasted a couple more vintages before deciding to buy the cases. Of course having the disappointment over Mouton 1994 added to our appreciation of La Conseillante (see previous blog).
