| Winery: | Chateau Montrose |
| Description: | This is the Montrose estate's second wine, a full-bodied yet supple red wine, typically perfect to drink 5-15 years from the vintage. And it is an unbelievable value --- the first wine of Chateau Montrose retails for $150-200/bottle upon release. 2019 is also being hailed as an excellent Bordeaux vintage. Montrose has been called the 'Latour of Saint-Estèphe' and is considered by many collectors and critics to be producing First-Growth quality, even though the 1855 classification designated it as a 2nd Growth. Planted to 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, Montrose has extremely old vines, many over 50+ years old, and produces a very rich, very complex and ageworthy wine. Lots of power and body here. Supple and silky Merlot generally predominates in the varietal mix. Its very pronounced red fruit aromas and flavours reflect another expression of the terroir in a distinctive style. |
