May 12, 2022 - Still quite rough tannin structure, some barnyard notes, mature bordeaux style with a bit more coarse tannin. I think this needs more time to develop. Probably better in 10+ years

January 9, 2021 - Påfallande tunt för att vara en Montus. Visade mest ålderstecken som multna löv och läder men inte mycket mer. Dock balanserat och klart drickbart men hade väntat mig mer.

November 20, 2020 - Color, clear red with copper rim; 1st nose, oak, red fruits and cedar box; 2nd nose, spices, roasted vanilla and raisins. On the palate, silky smooth with balanced fruits and acidity, big body with long finish. Great wine after 30 years!

November 19, 2020 - Final bottle. A profile a little reminiscent of a high quality claret of similar age - slightly austere and leafy fruit, leather and cigar but with a distinctive bark type element which I remember from this grape. The wine is very elegant and could easily go another ten years ****+
