Montrose

2018 Saint-Estephe Red Blend

Chateau Montrose is a remarkable red blend from the esteemed Saint-Estèphe region, showcasing the exceptional qualities of its vintage. This wine presents a deep, rich red color that entices the eye and signals its complexity. Its full-bodied structure is beautifully balanced with a bright acidity that provides freshness and vibrancy, making it a true delight on the palate. The fruit intensity is pronounced, revealing layers of dark fruit, blackcurrant, and hints of plum, accompanied by subtle earthy undertones. The tannins are notably firm, contributing to the wine's age-worthiness while offering a satisfying mouthfeel. Although it possesses some richness, it maintains a dry finish that invites further exploration of its intricate flavors. Chateau Montrose exemplifies the craftsmanship of Saint-Estèphe and is a fantastic expression of the region's terroir.
