Classic Bordeaux. Still young. Nice acidity, graphite, cassis. Drank over 3 hrs day 1. Improved on day 2.

Unchanged from my prior rating this is delicious and drinking very well, no need to wait on this 2nd wine of Ch. Montrose. This bottle had a bit of sediment so beware when pouring or decanting. Medium+ body with rich red & black fruit, a hint of tobacco, earth and a very 'fresh' feel in the mouth and on the palate. Consumed over 2 days and I didn't notice any real improvement on day two. Would definitely buy this again if I see it in Costco (paid $38.00) and consider it to be a value leader in the sub-$50 category as it blows away most competitors, some at 2x the price. I wish I could get something like this from California on a routine basis w/out having to pay $100+ (open to suggestions). Fabulous effort from Ch. Montrose. 93 points

Maybe more closed than my last bottle. Still showed a dark black fruit profile with some flint in the nose. Palate is not as flamboyant as prior bottles—probably shitting down a bit. Tannins are prominent and a bit coarse. Delicious—though be warned this is a large scaled wine.

93 points -- opened and consumed over the course of 2 hours. Smooth and easy to drink. I will post detailed notes later but this was outstanding and I can't imagine it improving much from where it is now. Glad I have 5 more bottles left. I got this at Costco for $38.00 -- a tremendous deal. Way better than the Pagodes de Cos I bought at the same time...
