Last bottle, opened for wedding anniversary, notes the same as bottle two years ago, apart from faded brown rim and even smoother, nice bottle and typical of the chateau but not exciting in any way, just very drinkable, way to much money now, I stopped buying this type of Bordeaux awhile ago partly because my age means I cannot guarantee I will be around when they mature, and more importantly in these difficult times money is needed elswhere other than a Bordelais vigneron's bank account.

Stellar masculine bold Montrose. Brought to lazy bear, and decanted for 1 hour. Strong funk, lots of youthful fruit, and this was our WOTN

Warm vintage, opulant, developped, rich style, how will this wine develop in the future? Acidity level?

Masterful wine in a beautiful place. Fell apart a bit after 2 1/2 hours but was absolutely singing until then.

Jeggie says this one is really good. Drank it at a restaurant together when we drank an anniversary wine. She liked this one more
