Château Montrose Saint Estčphe
Bordeaux Blend from St Estephe
Vintage: | 2016 |
---|---|
Description: | Another 99 rating from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, this vintage of Montrose offers a deep garnet-purple color that is a little youthfully shy to begin, but with coaxing, it unfurls to reveal the most beguiling scents of wilted roses, oolong tea, crushed rocks, wild sage, star anise and candied violets over a wonderfully pristine, well-defined core of crushed blackcurrants, black raspberries and kirsch plus wafts of pencil lead and wood smoke. The taut, muscular, medium to full-bodied palate straddles jaw-dropping intensity and finesse superbly, featuring a solid backbone of ripe tannins and giving a firm frame right through the incredibly long, exquisitely nuanced finish. |
