Chateau Montrose 2eme Cru 2016

Årgang 2016, 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc. Høsten fandt sted mellem 23. september og 14. oktober. Næsen er krydret, men med smuk rød kirsebærfrugt. Med sin meget fine koncentration kunne den næsten forveksles med en Saint Julien i en blindsmagning. Der er ikke noget groft, bare smuk, tæt, moden kirsebærfrugt. Der er også havtorn, eukalyptus, mynte, knuste hindbær, kirsebær og slåen. Det er en fornøjelse i næsen. Og den er virkelig poleret. Munden på Montrose er lige så fin og poleret som i 2015, måske endda lidt mere poleret, lidt mere elegant. Tanninerne er helt bløde og fyldige. Ingen hårde kanter og hjørner. Smuk velsmagende længde. Masser af rød frugt plus eukalyptus, mynte og lakrids. Et fint spor af salt på tungen, meget harmonisk og unik i sin smag. Unik, men typisk Montrose. Enhver, der husker Montrose 1989, 1990 og 2010, vil straks genkende 2016. Det er så typisk for denne nye, elegante slotsserie. Og jeg synes ikke, at den er så meget bagud i forhold til de store årgange. Jeg vurderer den forsigtigt.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Montrose 2eme Cru

Unquestionably one of the top 2-3 wines of the vintage, the 2016 Château Montrose is a monument in the making. Checking in as a blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, and 7% Cabernet Franc raised in 60% new French oak (the balance was in once-used barrels) and representing a tiny 36% of the production, this deep purple-colored 2016 possesses powerful, incredibly classic Saint-Estephe notes of creme de cassis, graphite, damp earth, lead pencil shavings, and burning embers. With a powerful, full-bodied style on the palate, a huge mid-palate, lots of underlying structure and tannic grip, and perfect balance, this magical wine will need upwards of a decade or cellaring and keep for 40-50 years.

Jane Anson om: Chateau Montrose 2eme Cru

Right from the first nose, you start salivating in anticipation. Has the exact right amount of sweet black cherry and cassis fruit, the tug of tannins that are confident and perfectly placed, ready to soften soon, but not quite yet. Velvet texture, with turmeric, black chocolate and violet notes, crushed mint on the finish. You know is going to last decades, and is a bottle that falls bang into that rare category of age-defying wines. The definition and the structure of this is right at the top of what Montrose can deliver. Harvest September 23 to October 14. 100/100

Parker om: Chateau Montrose 2eme Cru

One of the greatest wines in this vertical tasting, the 2016 Montrose unwinds in the glass with a deep bouquet of cassis, wild berries, pencil shavings, violets and burning embers. Full-bodied, deep and complete, it's velvety and seamless, with a layered core of vibrant fruit, sweet tannins and a long, resonant finish. At 13.3% alcohol, this unerringly precise, incipiently complex Montrose is the purist's choice. 99+/100

Neal Martin om: Chateau Montrose 2eme Cru

The 2016 Montrose has a tightly wound bouquet that is extremely well focused. This is one of the most pixelated aromatics I can remember on a Montrose at this stage, featuring blackberry, boysenberry and cedar and real mineralité underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with fine density and wonderful salinity. There is tremendous precision with razor-sharp tannin, and a brightness on the finish that is exceptional. This is a Montrose that will comfortably sit alongside the canon of great vintages from this Saint-Estèphe estate. As my score implies, it’s up there with the first growths. Stunning.

Montrose

Château Montrose ligger på et af de bedste steder i appellationen, højt oppe, med en vidunderlig udsigt over Gironde. Der skete et ejerskifte i 2006. Martin Bouygues, en af Frankrigs mest succesfulde iværksættere, købte denne legendariske vingård for et ukendt beløb.
