1994 Chateau Montrose
(France / Bordeaux / St-Estephe )
 
Reviewed by: rchan
Rated: 91 pts
 
Tasted from a Magnum.
The wine was quite closed and tight in the beginning. The color was still quite purple suggesting less aging then it actually did. After decanting for almost 2 hours, the wine started to show some of its true character. A classic bordeaux nose, with the rustic and earthy side of a St Estephe. A core of cedar, lead pencil aroma as a backbone to support a supple but not overripe black fruit flavors, the wine has good mid palate viscosity balanced by moderate sweet tannin. The finish was a bit abrupt but the wine has good concentration and nice attack with a firm grip.
