Château Montrose
Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
St. Estèphe, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
60% of production, 68% cab sav, 29% merlot, 3% petit verdot, beautiful soaring nose of cassis, balanced with fresh acidity on the long finish. Very fine tannins. A lighter more classic style, similar to 1998 in character ?

Apr 1st, 2014Understated on the nose, but deep and concentrated with brawny firm tannins, brambly blackberry fruit, tobacco, cedar, and earth. Muscular and savory, linear and well-integrated with a long finish. Needs decanting, but incredibly well-made.
