Information on the vintage 1966 red Bordeaux: 4/5 One of my favourite vintages which I have always described as a 'lean, long-distance runner'.

Jean-Marc Quarin December - 1990
Jean-Marc Quarin
Brick red color. Evolution with dark reflections. Beautiful intensity. Bright. Clean and very intense nose. Very fruity and fine. Quite complex. Caramel. Prune. Blackcurrant. When swirled, clean and intense, still fine and complex. Lots of freshness. Soft, delicate and melted attack. Development on a straight, elegant, fresh and fruity structure which gains amplitude without becoming excessive and retains all its aromatic complexity. Slow evolution on very well-balanced, fine and refined tannin. Great astringent and nuanced length. Stylish. Ready to drink and to keep.

Still hanging on in a pleasant way. Black fruit, charcoal, dust. Some tannin for structure and good acidity. Well past its best but interesting and enjoyable with identifiable Montrose character.

Château Château Montrose
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.
