Description
With its undeniable natural wealth and assets cultivated over the centuries, Château Montrose is one of the most privileged wine-producing areas in the Bordeaux region.
The 95-hectare vineyard has the exceptional and very rare characteristic of being historically in one piece, around the Château, the cellars and the farm buildings. This unity facilitates the work of the vineyard. It allows a global reflection on the vineyard, an optimal vigilance on the sanitary state of each parcel and a more efficient organisation of the work of the vine.
The terroir of Château Montrose corresponds to what geographers call the "elite nuclei". A complex geological stacking of several million years has favoured the creation of this ridge, which benefits from a natural drainage towards the estuary, ideal for the production of great wines.
This incredible puzzle of soils is reflected in the wines produced at Montrose as they are both the result and the synthesis of each micro-terroir.

Tasting
The robe : black with ruby hues. Dense and deep
The nose : complex with notes of mocha, zan, blackcurrant, raspberry, and violet
The palate : blackcurrant, morello, redcurrant, and cocoa give to the palate a rich touch of mellowness. Long, ample and homogeneous wine. The after taste is neat, and the mid-palate complex and balanced. The soft tannins are neat and straight on a lingering finish.
Splendid wine. Classic of Bordeaux, elegant and noble.
