In a few words ...
Château Montus benefits from a great terroir, unique in the South-West, with a steep slope of large pebbles on fine clay from the Pyrenees. The miracle came in 1985, when this wine shook up the hierarchy of mythical great red wines and gained worldwide recognition for its Tannat varietal. Dubbed the Pétrus of the South-West by a dozen critics over the past 30 years, Château Montus expresses all the qualities of these exceptional terroirs.

I haven't opened any bottles yet, but I know its qualities because I've already bought some from Twil and the cellar.

Remarkable for its price.
A full-bodied, powerful wine, yet without any aggressiveness or heaviness.
