Chateau Montrose Saint-Estephe 2000 (750 ml)

Dense ruby/purple, with a bouquet of blueberry, crushed rock, and some floral notes, the wine is medium to full-bodied , rich, powerful, but again very tannic and still strikingly youthful. For a wine that is already 10 years of age, it remains infantile. This blend of 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot is indeed a special wine and should hit its prime in about 2020 and last at least 30 years afterward.

95+ points from Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Winery Notes:
Dense and nearly dark in colour.
The nose is complex. Still shut, it offers aromas of tobacco, black fruits, and morello cherries. Long and full on the palate with aromas of morello cherries, blackcurrant, liquorice Gorgeous wine, full, and potent. Melted tannins with a beautiful velvety texture. A powerful and lingering finish.

Cabernet-Sauvignon: 63 %
Merlot: 31 %
Cabernet franc: 4 %
Petit Verdot: 2 %
