FINEST BORDEAUX INCLUDING MOUTON 1961
Lying in Weybridge, Surrey (EHD)
Château Montrose--Vintage 1959
Saint-Estèphe, 2me cru classé
In original wooden case, damaged lid. Bin-soiled labels, one stained Levels: two top, one upper, six mid/upper, one mid, two low-shoulder
Tasting note: Very popular with British merchants at this period. Outstanding - still fairly deep and velvety though fully mature: bouquet opened up deliciously, fabulous fragrance, crystallised violets, yet a certain fragility; sweet, fairly full-bodied, glorious rich flavour, soft yet still tannic. Last tasted Sept 2005. ***** M.B.
