Surpassing the 2019 and rivaling the 2016 as this estate's finest vintage of the last few decades, the 2020 Montrose is a monument in the making. Wafting from the glass with aromas of violets, dark berries, licorice, loamy soil, black truffle and subtle spices, it's full-bodied, deep and layered, with a seamless, elegantly muscular profile, terrific purity and energy, beautifully powdery tannins and a long, resonant finish. It checks in at 13.7% alcohol, the same as the superb 2009, but it is even deeper, more vibrant and more complex than the 2009. This will be worth a special effort to seek out and only confirms Montrose's status as one of the contemporary Médoc's leading estates and a de facto first growth.
100 Vinous
The 2020 Montrose was picked September 10-29; the clusters between 10% and 20% smaller than normal. It has an intense nose that is even more powerful than the 2019, revealing layers of blackberry, briar, cedar, pencil shavings and smoke that evolve wonderfully in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied, precise and poised, with unerring symmetry and perfect salinity. Very harmonious, almost pixelated on the finish. This is simply brilliant.

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.
