CHÂTEAU MONTROSE 2009

St.-Estèphe.

A bit of a brute, with a very chewy bittersweet ganache, tobacco and roasted fig core splayed open right now by a dagger of roasted apple wood, allspice and cedar. Long and dense through the finish, with a strong singed iron edge. The stuffing is certainly there, but this will take a while to come together as it's running unbridled right now. Proves you can still get classic old-school Bordeaux. Best from 2020 through 2040. 100 WA 97 WS

Estimate $1,800-$2,200

Realised: $2,400
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
