La Dame de Montrose 2011 (1x75cl)

The 2011 La Dame de Montrose also benefitted from a strict selection as well as top-notch winemaking. Composed of 72% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, it is a spicy, ripe 2011 with lots of fat as well as abundant notes of blueberries and black currants in addition to a sexy, open-knit, mid-weight personality. Drink this seductive effort over the next decade. Robert Parker The harvest at Montrose was held between September 2-27, and only a tiny parcel in the southern sector of the vineyard was touched by the hail storm that swept through the Pauillac / St.-Estephe border on September 1. 94 Tim Atkin Picked over a period of more than three weeks, the reds from Montrose were a triumph of man over nature in 2011. This is one of the second wines of the vintage: Merlot-based, but still dense and almost monolithic. But under the tannic carapace, there are lovely flavours of graphite, black tea and sweet dark fruits. 12 years.
