Chateau La Conseillante, Pomerol, France 2017 Alexander Valley Tasmorcan Barbera d'Asti reveals itself

Tasmorcan Barbera d'Asti reveals itself to the eye with a ruby-coloured appearance

Reminds me of the excellent 2015

Full-bodied and beautifully concentrated

Meyer lemon and finally lemon verbena

Barrel fermented and aged in two-thirds new oak

Chateau La Conseillante, Pomerol, France 2017 Alexander Valley Tasmorcan Barbera d'Asti reveals itselfMedium to deep garnet purple colored, the 2017 La Conseillante sashays out of the glass with the most gorgeous notes of lilacs, Black Forest cake, kirsch and black raspberries plus nuances of cinnamon stick, dark chocolate and licorice. Medium to full bodied, the palate has a firm, finely grained texture with bags of perfumed black fruits and wonderful freshness, finishing very long and very fragrant. 97 Pts Wine Advocate
