Description

A balanced and structured Second Cru Classé of Saint-Estèphe

The estate

Owned by brothers Martin and Olivier Bouygues since 2006, Château Montrose is an iconic reference of the Saint-Estèphe appellation. This Second Classified Growth of 1855 reigns over one of the most beautiful terroirs of the Médoc. In the past, as today, Château Montrose has stood out for the quality of its wines and a unique signature style that sets apart this world-renowned Bordeaux Left Bank estate .

The vineyard

With a surface area of 95 hectares, this vast single vineyard is a rarity on a terroir considered as an "elite nucleus". Located not far from the Gironde estuary and planted on gravel terraces mixed with sand on the surface on a subsoil of clay, this exceptional terroir produces great Saint-Estèphe wines.

The vintage

A beautifully warm winter preceded one of the hottest springs since the beginning of the 20th century. Significant pressure of downy mildew loomed from the beginning of the season until the flowering, due to heavy rainfall between May and June. Despite temperatures below normal for the season the growing cycle was still 3 weeks ahead of schedule, up until full bloom on May 22. The output of bunches was lower, with 4 bunches per plant instead of the usual 6. Particularly dry, the summer was marked by two scorching episodes in late July and mid-August. The threat of water stress was alleviated both by the ability of the deeply rooted vineyard to regulate its water reserves and by the periods of rain at the end of August. The grapes harvested were fully ripe and in perfect sanitary condition. However, these climatic conditions resulted in decrease in yield, with bunches that were 10% to 20% smaller than the average.

Blend

Cabernet Sauvignon (71%)
Merlot (23%)
Cabernet Franc (5%)
Petit Verdot (1%).
