Chateau Montrose, 2021 Saint Estephe, Bordeaux, 2nd Growth Grand Cru, 18 mts in 60% new oak. 62 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 31 % Merlot, 6 % Cabernet Franc, 1 % Petit Verdot Oak, vanilla, caramel, tobacco, chocolate, cassis, dark cherry, strawberry, blueberry, slightly floral. 2021 was not a great Bdx vintage but shows what a top winemaker can do in tough yrs. Could use a little bit more authority & resistance, but this is a still stunning, oak driven & utmost polished, silky tannins. 93p

95 pts. Lots of orange, blackberry, mulberry, blueberry, earth and tobacco. Quite fresh and extremely elegant on the palate. Does not really have any sign of oak which actually makes it hard to mark as a Bordeaux wine. But no matter what this wine is for sure well made with some very impressive pure fruit for the bad 2021 vintage in Bordeaux. Drink now or save 5-10 years.

Insanely beautiful and a monumental Saint Estephe, this is one of the winners of this vintage. Offering immense density, concentration and remarkable freshness, unfolding notes of boysenberry reduction, minty cassis, graphite, violets , star anise, wilted roses warm cigar wrappers and creamy baker’s chocolate. The elegant and persistent palate is powerful, yet refined by silky, polished tannins and a seamless finale that goes on and on! A vintage that perfectly reflects the signature of its terroir !

Way too young, but I didn’t buy it. I can kind of see where it will be in 15 years, but that might even be too young. I’ve gotta ask the guy who brought it how it tasted 24 hours later lol.

Leather and black-spice aromas are a prelude to the richness and power of this wine. It is concentrated and full of ripe black-plum flavors, and acidity

A millennial Saint-Estephe, but the tannins are still up. Balanced, spicy, classic Bordeaux with all familiar ingredients.
