Stunning. 2 hours decanted; incredible concentration, velvety tannins and aftertaste. Elegance

I find Montrose needs at least 20yrs to start showing its colours. This is still too young but starting to show its class, great wine but will wait another few years from trying next bottle, its stunning now but I feel a lot more to come. Great fine tannins with overload of fruit.

Winey Weekend With the Woodwards in Woodinville!!; 2/29/2024-3/2/2024 (Where else?): A cellar dive of sorts at the end of night. Quick decant and this just speaks to its origins! An austere Claret from that kinda year. But if you love BDX as much as we do, you'll get it. Creme de cassis, blackberry, graphite, earth/stones, cedar, and spice. Next in 4 years!
