Falstaff zum La Dame de Montrose 2020 Saint Estephe
Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, opaker Kern, zarte Randaufhellung. Nuancen von Kräutern und Brombeeren, frisch schwarze Kirschen, ein Hauch von Edelholz, Nugat und kandierten Orangenzesten. Mittlere Komplexität, rotbeerige Frucht, straffe, noch etwas fordernde Tannine, mineralisch, zitronig, trocknet im Abgang etwas aus, braucht Zeit.
James Suckling zum La Dame de Montrose 2020 Saint Estephe
Blackcurrants with crushed stone and slate. Lead pencil. Medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins and precision. Fantastic length and focus. One of the best Dames I have had. Organically grown grapes. 48% merlot, 46% cabernet sauvignon and 3% petit verdot and cabernet franc.
Jeb Dunnuck zum La Dame de Montrose 2020 Saint Estephe
The second wine of Château Montrose, the 2020 La Dame De Montrose is terrific, with a sunny, forward, medium-bodied style as well as lots of ripe red and black fruits, notes of sweet tobacco, sandalwood, and spice, supple tannins, and outstanding length. Open and complex, it’s going to shine for 15 years if well-stored. The blend is 49% Merlot, 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot, and the balance Cabernet Franc, checking in at the same alcohol as the Grand Vin, 13.4%.

Earthy, blackberries, herbs, licorice and roses are found in the nose. On the palate, the wine is packed with layers of dark red and black fruits, round, creamy tannins and a touch of roasted, leafy herbs in the mid-palate and in the finish. This baby Montrose is perfect to enjoy while waiting for the Grand Vin to develop. Drink from 2023-2038.

A very fresh and driven style, with a racy core of damson plum, red cherry and dried lilac laced with hints of black tea and iron, which nicely extend the finish. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2024 through 2034.
