CHATEAU MONTROSE 1990 |

Château Montrose 1990 St. Estèphe, 2ème Cru Classéu. 5bn. otherwise levels into the neck, slightly scuffed labels and capsules, labels slightly stained at very bottom edge, slightly sunken corks, excellent color and clarity, damaged case lidIn 2016, at the château, this still has all the panache of its youth. A super-luscious, earthy bouquet, sumptuous on the palate, with enormous freshness and attack. Peaty and salty/sweet, this packs a punch. Archetypal Montrose.
