WINEMAKER NOTES
2022 Chateau Montrose – Saint-Estèphe Second Growth Bordeaux
The 2022 Chateau Montrose is a commanding example of Saint-Estèphe’s ability to produce wines of both power and finesse. Classified as a Second Growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, Montrose has long been revered for its deep, structured wines with exceptional longevity. In 2022, the estate delivered a wine of remarkable concentration and purity, underscoring its position among the elite producers of the Bordeaux region.
Tasting Notes
Intensely perfumed with aromas of blackcurrant, graphite, and crushed violets, the bouquet is complemented by hints of cedar, tobacco, and dark cocoa. The palate is layered with ripe cassis, plum, and blackberry, framed by refined tannins and a vibrant mineral backbone. The finish is long, resonant, and impeccably balanced—true to Montrose’s signature style.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Situated on a gravel-rich plateau overlooking the Gironde estuary, Montrose’s 95 hectares of vineyards are planted predominantly to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The 2022 vintage benefited from careful canopy management and precise harvesting at optimal ripeness. Vinification took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, followed by élevage in predominantly new French oak barrels.
Investment & Collectibility
Chateau Montrose is widely recognized as one of the most reliable long-term investments among Grands Crus Classés de Médoc. The 2022 vintage, with its exceptional ripeness and balance, will reward decades of careful cellaring and is highly sought after by collectors. Perfect for your collection.
Vintage Insights
The 2022 growing season was marked by warmth and sunshine, balanced by well-timed rainfall that preserved acidity and freshness. The resulting wines from Saint-Estèphe are among the most concentrated and age-worthy of the past decade, with Montrose a clear standout.
