Château Montrose 2006

St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru Classé

Damp-stained label

Cabernet Sauvignon 72%, Merlot 28%. This was the first vintage under the new Bouygues ownership and with the late, great Jean-Bernard Delmas on board. In 2023 and from magnum, the Montrose inky/iodine/maritime nose that is so 'of place' - between earth and sea. I love it. Then the silky tannins that belie their strength, a refinement that is 'extra'. Now soft and supple - and so, so gulpable. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
