Winemakers Notes
La Conseillante, a unique signature Though the name La Conseillante first appeared 300 years ago, its acquisition by the Nicolas Family in 1871 marked a pivotal moment in the property's history. Since 2003, Bertrand and Jean-Valmy Nicolas, now in their fifth generation, have presided over La Conseillante, upholding the legacy of excellence set by their forebears. Guided by a dedicated team under the leadership of Marielle Cazaux, they make deliberate choices to continually enhance purity and precision, all the while safeguarding the wine's intrinsic identity—a hallmark characterized by finesse, equilibrium, and a luxuriously velvety texture. What sets La Conseillante apart is its unique location. Its vineyards extend not only across the Pomerol plateau but also venture into the Saint-Emilion area. Encompassing 12 hectares (almost 30 acres), the estate boasts a diverse range of soil types, from clay soils in the northeast to gravelly soils in the southwest.
