Chateau Montrose 2000 Chateau Montrose 2000 St. Estephe, 2eme Cru Classe Lot 7000-7015: Slightly scuffed and marked labels and capsules Lot 7003: 11 capsules with French tax stamps A bouquet which shows the end of adolescence and the beginning of adult life. Complex. Soft coffee creaminess. Such lovely red raspberry fruit on the palate. So crunchy. A panoply of red fruits, coffee and liquorice. In 2013, it unfolds in grandeur with "iode" depth. The sweetness of the year with the 'saltiness' of St. Estephe. Such extraordinary allure. Will last at least half a century.

There is an inimitable flavour of the ocean in the wines, minerally and even "salty". The texture is dense and tight-knit, with great complexity of taste. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Quantity: 1
