Château Montrose--Vintage 2000
12 bottles per lot
Château Montrose--Vintage 2000 Saint-Estèphe, 2me cru classé Tasting notes: This estate has frequently hit the bull's eye over recent vintages, and the 2000 Montrose is the finest effort produced since the compelling 1990 and 1989. This gigantically sized, tannic, backward effort boasts a saturated inky purple colour followed by a huge nose of acacia flavors, crushed blackberries, crème de cassis, vanilla, hickory smoke, and minerals. Extremely full-bodied, powerful, dense, and multi-layered, this unreal Montrose should last for 30+ years. A blend of 63 Cabernet Sauvignon, 31 Merlot, 4 Cabernet Franc, and 2 Petit Verdot, this is a special wine that has exceptional purity and length. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2040. 96 Points, Robert Parker Wine Advocate 146, April 2003. See also lot 186. 12 bottles per lot
