Chateau Montrose Saint Estephe 2012 (750ml)
Apricot and gooseberry are the first to hit the nose, followed by hints of pear and a touch of florals. The palate offers zesty acidity, wrapped around a vivid core of fruit that builds momentum with every sip. A clean and precise style, it’s a wine that invites repeat sips and rewards time in the glass. Best enjoyed slightly chilled.

The 2012 La Dame de Montrose has a very classy, well-defined nose with vigorous blackberry, wild strawberry and cedar scents bursting from the glass. The oak is neatly enmeshed. The palate is well-defined with a fresh saline entry (more so than its peers). Ripe and generous, perhaps it tries too hard on the finish and loses some of its precision, but this is a fine effort. Tasted blind at the Southwold Ten-Year On tasting
