Description
La Dame de Montrose 2019 is a stellar second wine that rivals many grand vins, beautifully showcasing the power and elegance of Saint-Estèphe. This exceptional vintage is a refined blend of approximately 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot. Pouring a deep, inky garnet, it presents an immediate and expressive bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, crushed blackberries, and violets, layered with classic notes of graphite, cedar, and subtle earthy minerality.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, delivering a concentrated core of dark fruit perfectly balanced by lively acidity and incredibly polished, silky tannins. While it possesses the robust structure typical of the Montrose estate, it retains a remarkable finesse and accessibility, concluding with a long, sophisticated finish.
