Château Montrose 2007

Red wine | 2nd Cru Classé, Saint-Estèphe AOC

Resulting from successive and rigorous selections carried out at each stage of production, in the vineyard as well as in the cellar, this great Cabernet Sauvignon wine is typical of the Saint-Estèphe appellation: structured, tannic, but with all the finesse and elegance of a Classified Growth.

    Il faut bien se rendre à l'évidence le 2007 de Montrose est meilleur que le 2006. La couleur est sombre et de bonne intensité, le nez se présente mûr, fruité, mais aussi animal. La bouche est très ample pour l'année, elle se développe avec du charme, du goût, du fruit et des notes viandées. Finale à la tannicité enrobée et longue, c'est très bon et un grand succès. Heureux ceux qui possèdent des bouteilles, mais surtout des magnums. Je pense que dans ce contenant il réservera de grandes surprises dans quelques années. A consommer de préférence entre 2013 et 2027. Mars 2011.

    Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
    Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Montrose has a crisp, earthy, tobacco-scented bouquet with sage and clove developing in the glass—clearly a Saint Estèphe that is determined to succeed in an off-vintage, which this estate is masterful at doing. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin. This bottle felt compact for this vintage, one of the few 2007s that merit decanting. However, there is undeniably plenty of freshness and a welcome touch of spice towards the finish. Linear in style, this is one of the few 2007s that should improve with bottle age. Drinking window: 2018 - 2035. Neil Martin. February 2017.
