Château Montrose 1982
Saint-Estéphe, 2ème cru classé
Bin-soiled labels, three damaged, two detached. Levels: two base of neck, eight top, five upper, two mid/upper, one mid, one mid/low-shoulder
Tasting note: A serious combination, Montrose and the 1982 vintage. And so it proved to be. Most recently, less deep than expected with surprisingly relaxed open rim; superbly evolved bouquet, uninhibited, rich, fragrant, spicy, harmonious; sweet, very distinctive, hint of eucalyptus, great length. Tannic of course. A great wine. Last tasted Sept 2005 ***** M.B.
