Château Montrose  2003 : Flamboyant, rich, lush, ripe and packed with layers of deep, dark red and black fruits, opulent textures and a finish that just won't let up. This wine is simply excellent today and could be even better with another 3-5 years of bottle age.

Château Montrose  1996 : It was served with the 1986 Montrose, however, this is a much better wine and reconfirms Robert Parker’s remarks at his own vertical at the estate in 2014. For me, it’s that loamy character that defines the nose – freshly ploughed, damp soil that tinges black fruit – that takes you straight to this particular chateau. It’s classic through and through and very well defined. The palate is wonderful with beautiful delineation, perfect acidity, touches of graphite infusing the red and black fruits that meld into a very pretty floral finish. This is clearly one of the greatest wines of the 1996 vintage and I’d stock up on as much as I can, as it will please for 30-40 years.

Château Montrose 1991: Ruby red, still surprisingly young, hardly any signs of age. Nose initially quiet, needs time, deep, fresh, stony, red-fruited, green pepper. Firm, slender palate, light body, good structure, rather dry, but still surprisingly well in the juice. Short, fruity red finish with tobacco aromas on the retro-finish.

Château Montrose

Château Montrose is one of the most iconic estates in the Saint-Estèphe appellation, on the left bank of Bordeaux. Classified as a Deuxième Grand Cru Classé in 1855, it embodies the power, longevity and stylistic rigor characteristic of the great wines of the northern Médoc. Located at the southern tip of Saint-Estèphe, immediately bordering the Gironde, the estate benefits from an exceptionally homogeneous terroir, often compared to that of its greatest neighboring classified growths in Pauillac.

The Château Montrose vineyard extends over approximately 95 hectares in a single block, planted predominantly with Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc and a touch of Petit Verdot. This composition gives the wines a deep structure, a marked aromatic intensity and a remarkable aging potential. The Montrose style is distinguished by its balance between controlled power, freshness and tannin precision.

Aged for approximately eighteen months in French oak barrels, this grand vin requires many years of cellaring. The estate counts among its legends 1921, 1929, the 1982 vintage and 1990, while the 2009 wine and the 2010 vintage proudly represent its recent period. La Dame de Montrose, the second selection born in 1983, offers a more approachable reading of the same terroir. The estate also produces a renowned second wine, La Dame de Montrose, crafted to the same exacting standards and offering a more accessible expression of the terroir.
