A small collection of Bordeaux and Champagne from one of the most significant wine and art collections in Canda. Sourced across the last century, these bottles were stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled home cellar and brought to Iron Gate to find them a new home.
The score for 1990 Chateau La Conseillante Pomerol is 94 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The only problem that the 1990 Château La Conseillante has faced is that it had to follow up the brilliant 1989. Here, tasted directly against the previous vintage, it seems more youthful in color than the 1989. The nose races out of the blocks, more precocious than I remember and yet never losing focus, offering kirsch, crushed violets and still that subtle marine influence. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly grainy tannin. It offers wonderful black truffle, morels and mulberry fruit, as powerful as the 1989, albeit not quite with the same precision on the finish. It is the purity of the La Conseillante that wins you over time and time again, and I would not hesitate in enjoying this Pomerol over the next decade. It will never quite match the 1989, but hey, don't hold that against this beauty.
