2006 Chateau Montrose (St. Estephe) Bordeaux - FranceDecanted: 2hrs
Cost: $139.00-$179.90
Date Tasted: September 13th, 2009
Blend: 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot
Tasting Notes: A very concentrated ruby core. A complex nose with notes of licorice. The palate exhibited high acid and tannins with notes of leather and pepper with a long finish. There was good balance and complexity overall however the expectations were higher than the delivery. Flavours are very subtle. This one will most definitely benefit from age.
