Chateau Montrose 1995

Château Montrose 1995 750ml

The 1995 Château Montrose is the estate's classified Saint-Estèphe grand vin, led by Cabernet Sauvignon and produced from an early, hot and notably dry Bordeaux vintage.

Vintage Character

An early, hot and very dry growing season produced ripe, healthy grapes with mature tannins. Merlot was fruity, full-bodied and round, while Cabernet Sauvignon showed balanced acidity and tannins with good length.

Tasting Profile & Food Pairing

Dense, slightly evolved colour with brown tones. Leather, forest floor, truffle and violet aromas lead to leather and mocha flavours, a straight attack and a finish marked by tight tannins.

Pairing: Roast beef, Lamb, Game, Mushroom dishes.

Harvested from 13 to 26 September 1995. The blend comprises 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot.
