In a few words ...
From an ideally drained, gravelly plateau in the heart of the Gironde, Dame de Montrose is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. This optimal blend justifies its intense, dark color, racy nose and harmonious tannins. On the palate, Dame de Montrose is full-bodied and open, with aromas of ripe fruit. Aged for 12 months, this wine is destined for all those who appreciate exceptional Médocs. Made from the same vineyards and with the same rigor as the grand vin, La Dame de Montrose, from a second selection, is a predominantly Merlot wine, supple and silky. Its pronounced red fruit aromas are another expression of the terroir in a style all its own. J. Suckling : 91-92/100
Tasting notes
Appearance
Dense, dark garnet color, drawing on purple in its youth.
Aroma
The bouquet reveals notes of cassis, violet, mocha, vanilla, spices and licorice.
Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Roasted | Smoked
Taste
The wines of Saint-Estèphe have strong tannins and thus reach their maturity more slowly than most other medals. They offer black fruits, a note of freshness, often a woody or smoky aspect and a floral touch.

The 2nd wine is often as good as the 1st wine Château Montrose, especially in this 2016 vintage: everything is there (red and black fruit, acidity, structure...). Unbeatable price for quality.
