31 Vintages of Château Montrose: 1928-2010; 5/2/2015-5/3/2015: IN/BN – recorked at the Chateau in 1989. Quite a bit of read on color, dark. Green/mint on the nose, almost medicinal. Fine length and structure, indeed. Alas, there is an abundance of drying tannin in the finish making the wine unbalanced. A 48 where the fruit were not powerful enough to survive the tannin.

Hard to describe....... Organoleptic probably not the best wine ever.....but emotionally....yeah....99/100. It is a stunner, but I'm sure it was bettter a few years ago. But on this Christmas dinner ...... I'm sure you know what I mean.

Fatally flawed. Acetone nose. Tight and bitter palate.

An epic vertical of Chateau Montrose (Restaurant Daniel): Greenish nose. Thin but some acidity. Corked.
