Our committee's review
An icon of Saint-Estèphe and a 3-star estate in the Guide RVF—France’s leading wine publication—Château Montrose firmly asserts its dominance with unmatched authority. The bold shift in vision led by Martin Bouygues immediately set a new standard for the estate, bringing in a state-of-the-art cellar and assembling a world-class team, including Hervé Berland, former director of Mouton Rothschild.
The terroir responded instantly to this Formula 1-level precision, and in recent years, Montrose has produced some of the most remarkable wines in its history.
The magnificent 2020 vintage exceeds all expectations, standing as one of the most spectacular releases in recent memory—awarded 100/100 by Parker.
The second wine, La Dame de Montrose, isn’t far behind… It captures the very essence of the Montrose style and stands as one of the most sought-after labels in its class across all of Bordeaux. Don’t miss this opportunity—especially at this price point.
It’s hard not to be impressed by the precision and class of the 2020 Saint-Estèphe La Dame de Montrose Red. Driven by vibrant Merlot (49%), this wine showcases beautifully ripe fruit, bursting with juiciness and layered with hints of charcoal and spice. The richness is impeccably managed, with a broad, generous palate kept in check by striking verticality and a refreshing lift. A complete wine, with a splendidly velvety texture and a refined mineral expression that speaks clearly of its terroir. Rated 93/100 by the Guide RVF.
A great Bordeaux label to (re)discover in a truly legendary vintage.
