Description

Château Montrose 1985  

St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru Classé 

u. 8bn, 2vts, bin-soiled and heavily damp-stained labels, nicked capsules, slightly sunken corks, 1 very slight signs of seepage 


In 2019 and from magnum, a very deep colour led to a striking bouquet, with power and aromatic intensity. On the palate, layers of richness combined with beautiful fruit and succulent structure. This vintage marked an important evolution in the quality of Montrose because of the introduction of the second wine, La Dame de Montrose, and this is the first top year to benefit from such selection for the grand vin. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
