  Espresso. flowers, spice, wet earth, and cocoa with a hint of pepper fill up the perfume. The medium-bodied palate is soft, sweet, and vibrant, with a refreshing hint of orange, and black pepper that adds to the chocolate-accented cherries in the finish. Enjoy this while waiting for the Grand Vin to develop. Drink from 2025-2037.

  (92-94 vvPunkte) 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 52% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot. Dunkles Rubinrot. Die Nase ist steinig, kühl, anfangs distanziert, öffnet sich mehr und mehr, zeigt dunkle Beeren, subtile Röstnoten, schwarze Kirschen. und eine herrliche Würze. Im Gaumen saftig und frisch, mit guter Struktur, einer knackigen Frucht und sehr feinen Tanninen, nichts überwiegt, die Säure ist perfekt integriert, harmonisch, frisch und von guter Länge. Eine charmante Dame, die früh für entzückende Tischgespräche sorgen wird. 2025-2038+ (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Château Montrose)

  Tobacco leaf, currants, forest floor and cherries on the nose move you quickly to the medium-bodied, soft, fresh palate, finishing with all of its sweet, polished, red fruits with touches of peppery cherries in the finish. The wine is a blend of 53% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2023-2038. 89-91

  En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Fresh ripe plums, brambles, blackcurrants, slightly leafy notes, sweet spice, a little pepper, dusty glass lingers a little, polished oak. An impression of austerity on the nose despite all that is going. Medium plus intensity acidity is a little high, tannins are quire hard but dominant, slight concentrated black fruits travel with tannic supports finishes savoury and with that tannic toughness

  With a very pretty black currant fruit to the nose. A little tarter and a little harder than one might expect.
