Saturday, October 27, 2018 - Wine & Dine Vol XI (Florhof (Zurich)): Tasted blind as part of a mini Montrose vertical (1996, 2003, 2005, 2009). For me the 2009 out on top, but the 1998 and 2003 were not far behind while the 2005 fell a bit short.

Unfortunately closed and low in intensity. The fruit was surprisingly jamy (even more than the marmeladey 2003) and sweet. Some interesting spiceyness. Tannins not yet well integrated but otherwise great balance.
