MONTROSE
In 1778, Etienne-Théodore Dumoulin purchased 200 acres of land in St.-Estèphe. At the time, the ridge was blanketed with heather flowers as far as the eye could see inspiring Dumoulin to name his château in honor of their purplish pink color: Château "Mont-rose." It was not long before Dumoulin planted vines and started making some of the most tannic, dense and age-worthy wines of the 19th and 20th-centuries. Though the Château's name means "pink" there is certainly nothing feminine about the wines. Under the leadership of Charmolüe family, whose coat of arms appears on the label, Château Montrose has continuously made wines that are first growth in quality.
