Rezensionen & Bewertungen
87 Robert Parker
Tasted at the Montrose vertical in London, previous encounters with the 1979 Montrose have been a rum experience. Like the 1978, however, this was better. It was picked between 29 September and 14 October after a rather cloudy month. Certainly it shows its age with wide bricking on the rim. The nose is leathery and rather dour, although I noticed a touch of mint developing in the glass among dusty tertiary aromas. The palate is medium-bodied without the same cohesion as the 1978. However, the bottle was undeniably fresh with red rather than black fruit, a fine seem of acidity and a simple, pastille-like finish. The 1979 is not going to get any better, so pop the cork sooner rather than later if you have any bottles. Tasted June 2016.<br/>

Château Montrose
Das Château Montrose, das Jahr für Jahr fantastische Bordeauxweine produziert, ist ein klassifiziertes Zweites Gewächs in der Hierarchie von Saint-Estèphe. Seine 95 Hektar Weinberge befinden sich unmittelbar nördlich von Pauillac in idealer Lage auf kiesigen, gut gedränten Böden und ziehen sich auf über einem Kilometer die Gironde-Mündung entlang. Dieses einzigartige Mikroklima von Montrose schafft milde Temperaturen, so dass die Rebstöcke weder verheerenden Frost- noch Hitzeperioden ausgesetzt sind. Der Flickenteppich aus Weingärten, die auf den privilegiertesten Terroirs der Welt stehen, ist seit 2006 im Besitz von Martin und Olivier Bouygues. Im Jahr 2012 setzten sie Hervé Berland, den ehemaligen Geschäftsführer von Mouton Rothschild, als Manager ein. Dieses spektakuläre Château produziert drei Weine, die allesamt gewaltig, kraftvoll, dicht und langlebig sind. Der Hauptwein Montrose ist ein monumental fleischiger, vereinnahmender Roter.
