Description
Robert Parker: Consistently one of the glorious wines of thevintage, and far better than its more renowned stablemate Petrus,La Conseillante’s 1985, which has been fully mature since the lateeighties, continues to hold at its magical plateau of maturity. Theostentatious aromatics of smoked herbs, sweet raspberry and cherryfruit intermixed with licorice, Asian spice, and truffle soar fromthe glass. On the palate, the wine is beautifully concentrated,silky-textured, not a blockbuster, more of an elegant,medium-bodied style, but delicious fruit, impeccable balance, andfabulous purity and staying power in the mouth are what greatBordeaux is all about.
