Community Tasting Note

William Kelley Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 10, 2015 - The 1975 Montrose is a lovely vintage for this estate, not far off the level of the 1970. A bright, red-fruity bouquet is still youthful, complemented by some lovely gravelly soil tones and cigar box notes. On the palate, the wine leads with bright acids and noticeable tannic structure, but there is also a great deal of flavor here, and the wine's acidity gives it a focus and detail that can be smudged off in vintages which display more sur maturité. I'm looking forward to revisiting this after a few hours in a decanter.
