Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Montlandrie 2018

94–95
/100

75 procent Merlot, 20 procent Cabernet Franc, fem procent Cabernet Franc. 14,5 procent alkohol i volumen. Slottet består af 15 hektar vinmarker. Vinstokkene blev plantet mellem 2009 og 2012. Montlandrie er en vinmark, der udelukkende ligger på kalksten på et bjerg i nærheden af Château d'Aiguilhe. Den har form som et amfiteater i et stenbrud. Næsen er ultrafin, Cabernet Franc træder tydeligt frem. Slet ikke en blockbuster. Vinen er præcis, hvad Denis Durantou altid har ønsket. Fine vine med stor friskhed. Vinen har en utrolig finesse. Frisk blomme, hindbær, meget fine røde og sorte kirsebær, lidt surkirsebær. Smagen er domineret af rød frugt. Surkirsebær også her. Vidunderlig friskhed, der bliver hængende i lang tid. Salt og sødmefuld til sidst, minder næsten om karamel. Ekstremt elegant Castillon. I stil med en Clos Puy Arnaud, bortset fra at Montlandrie simpelthen er en liter billigere. Dette er et mirakel i forhold til pris og ydelse fra den store mester Denis Durantou. En topværdi! 94-95/100

The Wine Independent om: Chateau Montlandrie

A blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Montlandrie is deep garnet-purple in color. It needs a lot of swirling and coaxing to wake a sleeping monster nose of baked plums, boysenberry preserves, and fruitcake, followed by nuances of licorice, menthol, and Indian spices. The full-bodied palate possesses surprising grace and brightness for this hot vintage, with wonderful tension and silky tannins, finishing with epic length.

Suckling om: Chateau Montlandrie

This is beautifully crafted for this appellation with soft, fine tannins that give the wine tension and focus. It’s medium-to full-bodied with polish and finesse. Really nicely done for this appellation. Give it another two or three years to soften even more. Try after 2022. 93/100

Jane Anson om: Chateau Montlandrie

The Castillon wine owned by the Durantou family, still being made by the late Denis Durantou in 2018, and one to look out for in a vintage that favoured limestone soils. Raspberry and blueberry fruits dominate, with sweet black cherry coming in as it opens, laced with fragrant tomato leaf and mouthwatering wet stone salinity. I love this wine, it is joyful and consistently impressive. 40% new oak, harvested first few days of October. 93/100

Parker om: Chateau Montlandrie

Produced by Denis Durantou of Château L’Eglise Clinet, the 2018 Montlandrie is a blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon with 14.5% alcohol and is currently aging in 40% new oak. Deep purple-black in color, it features fragrant notes of lilacs, Morello cherries and blueberry compote over a core of plum preserves and woodsmoke plus a waft of underbrush. The medium to full-bodied palate is richly fruited with black and blue fruits, lifted by earthy accents and lovely freshness, finishing long and velvety textured. 92-94/100
