Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2016 Montrose is a little youthfully shy to begin, but with coaxing, it unfurls to reveal the most beguiling scents of wilted roses, oolong tea, crushed rocks, wild sage, star anise and candied violets over a wonderfully pristine, well-defined core of crushed blackcurrants, black raspberries and kirsch plus wafts of pencil lead and wood smoke. The taut, muscular, medium to full-bodied palate straddles jaw-dropping intensity and finesse superbly, featuring a solid backbone of ripe tannins and giving a firm frame right through the incredibly long, exquisitely nuanced finish.

The floral and fresh aromas to this are mesmerizing. Roses and lilacs galore. The pure cab aromas coming from the glass – blackcurrants and blackberries – are so memorable. Full-bodied, deep and profound. The ultra-fine tannins on the palate are so polished and fine-grained. The finish goes on for minutes with subtle yet superb fruit. It’s all about precision and form here. A modern classic for Montrose. Better after 2026.

Very pure, with lilac, violet, cassis, bitter cherry and damson plum notes streaming through in lockstep right from the start. A fine chalky underpinning gives the finish a sleek and racy edge. A beautifully precise wine, with a lot in reserve, that could benefit from a little added weight in the cellar. Best from 2025 through 2040. — JM

Produttore
Château Montrose
Producendo Bordeaux eccezionali anno dopo anno, questa proprietà di 95 ettari, Château Montrose, è classificata Deuxième Cru nella classificazione di Saint-Estèphe. Appena a nord di Pauillac, Montrose è situato in un appezzamento ghiaioso e ben drenato lungo l'estuario della Gironda per oltre un chilometro. Il microclima locale, unico a Montrose, mitiga le temperature, proteggendo le viti dal gelo devastante e dalle ondate di calore altrettanto distruttive. Questi vigneti sparpagliati, piantati sui terroir vinicoli più privilegiati del mondo, sono di proprietà di Martin e Olivier Bouygues dal 2006. Dal 2012 gestisce la proprietà Hervé Berland, l'ex amministratore delegato di Mouton Rothschild. Questo spettacolare Château di Saint-Estèphe produce tre vini immensi, potenti, fitti e longevi. Il vino principale, Montrose, è un rosso carnoso, monumentale e persuasivo.
