Château Montrose 2010 — Original Wooden Case of 6 Magnums
This Château Montrose 2010, offered in an original wooden case of 6 magnums, represents one of the great modern expressions of Saint-Estèphe. The 2010 vintage combines depth, power, freshness and an exceptional tannic structure, in a monumental, precise and profoundly age-worthy style.
Terroir: Saint-Estèphe, deep gravel and controlled power
Château Montrose occupies one of the great terroirs of Saint-Estèphe, shaped by deep gravel soils, excellent drainage and a close proximity to the Gironde estuary. This setting gives wines of impressive architecture, where dense fruit is supported by firm tannins, natural freshness and remarkable ageing potential.
The 2010 vintage stands out for its rare balance between ripeness and tension. At Montrose, it produced a wine of great concentration, still youthful in expression, yet already striking for its purity, depth and precision. The magnum format further enhances its slow and noble evolution.
Tasting notes
Appearance: dark purple with garnet reflections, dense, deep and still remarkably youthful in intensity.
Nose: deep and precise, with cassis, blackberry, black cherry, graphite, cedar, blond tobacco, dark spices and a touch of violet. With aeration, notes of liquorice, pencil lead, noble earth and undergrowth begin to emerge.
Palate: powerful, upright and masterfully structured, with dense substance, tightly knit yet noble tannins and remarkable freshness. The finish is very long, mineral, spicy and deeply Bordeaux in character, with an impression of contained power and great precision.

Fruit: cassis, blackberry, black cherry, ripe dark fruit.
Spices and ageing: cedar, blond tobacco, graphite, liquorice, dark spices, pencil lead.
