Crafted with the same precision as the grand vin, it offers remarkable depth, purity and refinement from younger vines, making it a more approachable expression of Montrose’s unmistakable style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMakuprofiili\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows a deep ruby color with a vibrant, polished edge. The bouquet is expressive and elegant, unfolding with black cherry, blueberry, violet and subtle floral notes, supported by hints of spice and well-integrated oak.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a supple, layered texture and fine tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure and freshness, while Merlot adds generosity and a plush core. The finish is long and balanced, and although it can be enjoyed now with some air, it should continue to develop gracefully over the next few years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from Château Montrose’s historic Saint-Estèphe vineyard, where gravelly, well-drained soils over clay provide ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon and help preserve moisture in warmer, drier periods. Harvesting is done by hand, followed by careful double sorting, first mechanically and then by hand, to ensure only the best fruit is retained. After gentle pressing, the wine undergoes a 25-day temperature-controlled maceration and is aged for around 12 months in French oak, with about 30% new barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine pairs beautifully with roast lamb, duck breast, beef tenderloin, game birds and mushroom-based dishes, as well as aged cheeses. Serve it at 16–18°C, and decant for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow its aromatics and texture to fully open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuottaja\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau Montrose is one of the great names of Saint-Estèphe and stands alongside Cos d’Estournel in the top tier of the appellation.
