Château La Conseillante, Wine estate in Pomerol, France
The 12-hectare vineyard of Château La Conseillante features 16 separate plots with a combination of grey clay and sandy gravel soils in the Pomerol region.
Founded in the mid-18th century by Catherine Conseillan, the estate was acquired by the Nicolas family in 1871, who continue to manage it through five generations.
The wine bottles display a distinctive purple capsule and a shield-adorned label with a silver border surrounding the letter 'N', representing the Nicolas family heritage.
The estate produces approximately 4,500 cases annually, with grapes processed in 22 concrete vats corresponding to specific vineyard plots for precise vinification.
The vineyard soil contains specific blue clay deposits and maintains 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc vines, with plans to introduce Cabernet Sauvignon in 2025.

The wine estates of Bordeaux spread across the Gironde department and produce wines under more than 60 appellations. The châteaux combine winemaking traditions with modern cellar techniques. Many properties open their doors to visitors, offering tours of vineyards, fermentation rooms, and barrel cellars. The grand estates of the Médoc, such as Château Margaux, Château Latour, or Château Mouton Rothschild, rank among the most recognized addresses in the region. In Saint-Émilion, châteaux cluster around the medieval village. The Entre-deux-Mers area features numerous smaller family operations. Wine routes traverse landscapes of vine rows and historic buildings. The architecture of the châteaux ranges from medieval fortresses to 18th and 19th-century residences. Some estates have commissioned contemporary cellars from architects like Norman Foster or Jean Nouvel. Tasting rooms allow visitors to sample different vintages and blends. Many domains also organize oenology workshops and receptions in their vineyards.
