Château Montrose 1996 (12 BT)

Château Montrose 1996  

St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru Classé 

u. 12bn, slightly scuffed labels, slightly scuffed capsules 

In 2023 and from double magnum, this has absolute, old style St.Estèphe character, with huge personality and a whiff of the Atlantic. Highly defined, with 1996 tannic structure plus all the Cabernet Sauvignon rich fruit to cover it. A terroir-teaching wine of real stature.  Serena Sutcliffe, MW
