Château Montrose 2000 (5 BT)

Château Montrose 2000

St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru Classé

u. bn, scuffed capsules

In 2013, it unfolded in grandeur with "iodé" depth. The sweetness of the year with the 'saltiness' of St. Estèphe. Such extraordinary allure. Will last at least half a century. Last drunk from magnum in 2014. This had such freshness of red fruits all through, with redcurrants to the fore. The 2000s are like this now, youthful and up-front. Then the depth really grows on you, which was absolutely the case with this wine. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
