Information on the 1983 vintage in red Bordeaux : I usually link in my mind the 1983 and 1981 vintages. They certainly have quite a bit in common, in style and weight for example. Both are, or at least were, considered more characteristic of Bordeaux than the widely different and somehow 'un-English' 1982 claret, by which I mean the sort of claret which we liked to drink.

Dark red. Medium to good intensity. Evolved on the rim. Iodine! Reconditioned bottle. Oyster shell. Smooth on the attack, lacking consistency, we are dealing here with the viticulture of yesteryear and high yields. That said, this wine is not dry. And yet the tannin stiffens after the second glass. The iodine note is equivalent to a note of rot. Serve it at the table to showcase it but this nose is difficult. No second wine, everything is there. Terroir twenty years later.

Now fully mature to drink. Lovely dried cherries, light tobacco aromas and flavors, medium body and soft and round texture.

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 Second Grand Cru Classé in 1855, it embodies the power, longevity and stylistic rigor characteristic of the great wines of northern Médoc. Located at the southern tip of Saint-Estèphe, directly bordering the Gironde estuary, the estate benefits from a terroir of rare homogeneity, often compared to that of the greatest classified growths neighboring Pauillac.

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

Among the most remarkable vintages are Château Montrose 1921, Château Montrose 1989, Château Montrose 1990, Château Montrose 1996, Château Montrose 2000, Château Montrose 2009, Château Montrose 2010, Château Montrose 2015, regularly acclaimed for their concentration and aging potential. The estate also produces a renowned second wine, La Dame de Montrose, crafted with the same quality standards and offering a more accessible expression of the terroir.
