Château Montrose Nestled in the heart of Saint-Estèphe, this legendary estate has embodied Bordeaux excellence for nearly two centuries, blending family tradition with viticultural precision. - Terroir: Deep gravel and a clay-limestone subsoil on the banks of the Gironde, lending the wines a mineral structure and rare elegance. - Winemaking: A meticulous blend of noble grape varieties, aged with patience to reveal the purity of the fruit and the tension of the terroir. Tasting notes for Château Montrose 1982 To the eye: A garnet red robe with tawny reflections, of silky density and a brilliance preserved by time. On the nose: Aromas of ripe blackcurrant, cedar and golden tobacco intertwine, lifted by a touch of graphite and a subtle iodine salinity. On the palate: A velvety texture, carried by lively acidity and chalky minerality, concludes with a long and precise finish, where gentle spices and candied dark fruits mingle. Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity. Vintage 1982 Considered one of the great vintages of the 20th century in Bordeaux, 1982 combines exceptional maturity and balanced structure, ideal for age-worthy wines. - Aging potential: To be drunk until 2030–2035, to be stored in a cool cellar (12–14°C) and away from light.
