97-99
Die Nase zeigt sich zunächst etwas schuchter und braucht Zeit im Glas, die Aromen fächern sich aber wunderbar auf, viele dunkle kleine Kirschen, Cassis, Holunder. Dann eine kühle, minzige Frische, ein bisschen rote Paprika und was steiniges im Duft. Im Mund sehr füllig mit massen an reifen Tanninen, eine langer aromatischer Ausklang, der erstaunlich balanciert und feingliedrig wird, viel mehr als man es von dieser üppigen Aromatik hätten erwarten dürfen.
 
Chateau Montrose 2022 Saint Estephe mit 99-100 Parker Punkten ausgezeichnet Den Chateau Montrose 2022 Saint Estephe beschreibt William Kelley wie folgt:
The 2022 Montrose is such a compelling wine that assigning it a bracketed score seems a mere formality. A brilliant terroir, impeccable viticulture, perfectly timed harvest dates and judicious extraction have aligned to deliver a monument in the making, reminiscent of a far purer, more precise, modern-day version of the 1990 vintage at this address. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cassis, violets, iris, pencil lead and cigar wrapper, it's full-bodied, deep and authoritative, its velvety attack segueing into a layered, elegantly muscular core that's framed by supple, powdery tannins, concluding with a long, resonant finish. A blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, this only confirms Montrose's status as a de facto first growth and unquestionably one of the contemporary Médoc's very greatest estates.
 
97-98 Sucklingpunkte für den Chateau Montrose 2022 Saint Estephe Den Chateau Montrose 2022 Saint Estephe beschreibt James Suckling wie folgt:
A very powerful and structured Montrose with steely tannins that run the length of the wine. It's compacted and muscular with an extremely long finish. Graphite and spices in the aftertaste. This should be terrific after the elevage. From organically grown grapes. 66% cabernet sauvignon, 25% merlot, 8% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot.
 
98-100 Punkte von Jeb Dunnuck für den Chateau Montrose 2022 Saint Estephe Den WEINNAME beschreibt Jeb Dunnuck wie folgt:
The 2022 Château Montrose is a classic blend of two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon, with the balance 25% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot, all of which was brought up in 60% new oak from a variety of coopers. Another absolutely brilliant wine in the vintage, it offers a saturated purple hue as well as an essence of Montrose-like bouquet of currants, blueberries, damp earth, violets, graphite, and tobacco leaf. Full-bodied, incredibly concentrated, and powerful, it nevertheless has a riveting sense of purity, precision, and finesse that's hard to believe. Given its balance and purity of fruit, as well as the quality of the tannins, it's going to offer incredible pleasure with just 4-6 years of bottle age (a decade would be best) yet be just about immortal if well stored.

Die Bewertung für den Chateau Montrose 2022 Saint Estephe vom Wine Cellar Insider lautet wie folgt. Den WEINNAME beschreibt Jeff Leve wie folgt:
98-100
Almost opaque in color, the wine is equally dark in character with its core of blackberries, black currants, black cherries, and licorice. In the nose, you also find flowers, citrus, and a kitchen full of spices. The level of depth on the palate is almost off the charts, yet, the wine somehow remains light on its feet. There is intensity matched with purity, elegance and seamlessness in the finish that holds your focus for at least 60 seconds. Clearly, this is one of the great vintages of Montrose with a uniqueness of character that fans of the estate should have in their cellar. Lastly, it is important to note there is no feeling of heat, jam or over ripeness here. The wine is a blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. 14.5% ABV, pH 3.78. Harvesting took place September 2 - September 22. Yields were 31 hectoliters per hectare. The Grand Vin was produced using only 58% of the harvest. The wine is aging in 60% new, French oak barrels for 18 months before bottling. Drink from 2030-2065.
 
Das Decantermagazin bewertet wie folgt: Den WEINNAME beschreibt der Georgina Hindle wie folgt:
97 / 100
A gorgeous richness straight away, you can feel the intensity and concentration but the texture is so sleek, almost silky yet weighty, juicy and intense. Supple but firm with crushed stones, liquorice, tobacco, dark chocolate, plums and blackcurrants. Tannins are firm and at the fore, but cool and crisp with bite and wet stone elements give an instant minerality. The fruit almost takes a back seat, ripe and black in nature, but quieter than the other elements and overall frame. Juicy and succulent, an appealing shot of acidity initially, mouthwatering and vibrant, then the chalky tannins come in and give this a sense of seriousness. This carries the strength of the vintage well, focused and precise with detail and a sense of energy that is so impactful. 1% Petit Verdot completes the blend. Harvest 2-22 September. 58% grand vin - one of the biggest proportions. There was 53% grand vin in 2018. 3.8pH. 80 IPT. A yield of 31hl/ha.

Purity and beauty on the nose with blackberry, blueberry, raspberry, crushed-stone and violet character. A full-bodied red with masses of polished tannins and intense flavors of currants and blackberries. Juicy finish. Super depth to this. Goes on for minutes. Try after 2027.
 
98+ Punkte vom Wine Advocate für denLisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Montrose 2018 Saint Estephe wie folgt:

The 2018 Montrose is a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. Very deep garnet-purple in color, it needs a good amount of air to unlock the vibrant scents of crushed blackberries, preserved plums and cassis with suggestions of star anise, cedar chest, underbrush, Indian spices and iron ore, plus an emerging waft of violets. The full-bodied palate features the most exquisitely ripe tannins, offering a rock-solid backbone with tons of freshness lifting the taut, muscular fruit, finishing long and mineral laced. Going back to this wine over a period of hours and then days further reveals a Montrose of great opulence, richness and depth. Incidentally, the IPT level this year is 82, which indicates a very high level of tannins, and yet they are so, so ripe. The alcohol is around 14.5%. But sit back, close your eyes and forget the numbers—this is pure hedonism in its youth with a fantastic 40+ years of cellaring ahead of it, during the course of which do not be at all surprised if you are blown away by a three-digit experience.
 
97 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für denAntonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Montrose 2018 Saint Estephe wie folgt:

The 2018 Montrose is dazzling. Whereas so many 2018s are opulent and broad, Montrose is a wine of vertical explosive power. Ripe Cabernet aromatics soar out of the glass, making a strong first impression. Black cherry, leather, licorice, graphite and menthol develop later as the 2018 starts to open in the glass. The energy, vibrancy and drive here are palpable right out of the gate. Montrose is one of real stars of 2018. Don't miss it!
 
100 Punkte von Jeb Dunnuck Jeb Dunnuck im März 2021:

A full-bodied powerhouse as well as a perfect wine, the 2018 Château Montrose is a final blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 6% Cabernet Franc that was raised in 60% new French oak. Boasting a deep purple hue as well as awesome levels of crème de cassis and smoky blackberry fruits and notes of tobacco, lead pencil, scorched earth, and chocolate, it's deep, opulent, and incredibly concentrated on the palate, with no shortage of mid-palate depth, tannins, or length. It reminds me a little of a fresher version of the 2003, although there's more Cabernet Sauvignon in 2018 as well as less Merlot. It has that classic Montrose minerality and backward, mineral-laced style, yet I suspect this will be drinkable in just 5-6 years and should evolve into a modern-day legend from this terroir.

97 Punkte von Jeb Dunnuck für den Jeb Dunnuck beschreibt den Chateau Montrose 2019 im April 2022:

The flagship 2019 Château Montrose is also brilliant, although it's not going to match the all-time greats from this estate. Gorgeous cassis, graphite, damp earth, cedar pencil, and tobacco are just some of the nuances here, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a pure, graceful, layered mouthfeel, building tannins, and a great finish. It doesn't have the overall density or mid-palate of the 2018 or 2016, but it’s flawlessly balanced and just incredibly impressive. Showing more and more tannins with time in the glass, it will need a decade of bottle age and will evolve for 30+ years.
 
97 Punkte vom Wine Advocate für den Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint EstepheDen Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint Estephe beschreibt William Kelley im April 2022 wie folgt:

The 2019 Montrose has turned out very well in bottle, wafting from the glass with a dramatic, perfumed bouquet of wild berries and cassis mingled with notions of lilac, violets, pencil shavings and warm spices, framed by nicely integrated new oak. Full-bodied, layered and seamless, it's deep and multidimensional, with lively acids, beautifully refined tannins and a long, resonant finish. Checking in at 14.4% alcohol (rather higher than, for example, the brilliant 2009's 13.7% or the 2016's 13.3%), this is an undeniably powerful, ripe Montrose, but for now everything appears to be kept in check.
 
100 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint EstepheAntonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint Estephe:

The 2019 Montrose is very clearly one of the wines of the vintage. Rich, inky and towering in concentration, the 2019 possesses off the charts intensity and tons of structure to back it up. Succulent black cherry, plum, tobacco, gravel and licorice infuse the 2019 with striking depth. The 2019 is not quite as opulent as some recent vintages, and that's a good thing. Readers will find a regal wine that marries elegance with power. Unforgettable. Tasted two times.
 
97 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint EstepheUnd Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint Estephe:

The 2019 Montrose was bottled in July 2021, and though I did not taste it en primeur, I did sample it just prior to bottling and then after, in September 2021. It was picked from September 19 to October 8, with a similar percentage of Merlot to the 2009 (30% compared to around 25% due to the ripeness). At 14.4% alcohol, it has lower alcohol than the 2018 (14.8%). The Merlot guides the nose, which is a little more flamboyant than usual for Montrose, and very pure, offering small black cherries, black currant, wild mint and just a hint of camphor. The palate is medium-bodied, spicy and vibrant, with a silky-smooth texture and a touch of peppercorn on the entry. There is wonderful tension throughout this Montrose, and gentle grip on the finish. Will this vintage be more approachable than the 2018?
 
96 Punkte vom Wine Spectator für den Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint EstepheFür den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Chateau Montrose 2019 Saint Estephe:
Gleich auf mit den Jahrgängen 2016 und 1989!

Lush and lovely, showing a mix of creamed loganberry, plum, boysenberry and mulberry flavors that borders on exotic, but everything stays harnessed by sleek floral and iron notes through the finish. This has ample structure for balance that's well-embedded in the fruit, making this seemingly approachable now but there's absolutely no rush. A beauty. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2023 through 2040.
 
A great vintage ending in “9”
2019 marked an important step in the progression of our environmental approach. which now concerns the entire vineyard. This year. the good climatic conditions combined with our “green” farming methods enabled us to obtain a beautiful harvest combining quality and quantity. A great vintage ending in “9” and one of the hottest of the past decade. The exceptionally mild and dry winter was marked by temperatures above average for the season. On 13 and 14 April. our vineyard. which benefits from the moderating influence of the estuary. was
spared from frost. The rains in the two first weeks of June led us to fear the development of disease but the vines remained in very good health and we maintained our environmental course. During the two heatwaves in June and July. our clay soils and their great capacity to regulate water allowed the vines to avoid water stress. Full flowering. uniform and quick. took place during the first
week of June. The first signs of colour change appeared from 30 July. A uniform veraison followed. slowed down by cool and rainy weather in August.
Despite some intermittent rain harvest took place under good conditions from 19 September to 8 October. Our intra-plot picking followed by tailor-made vinification allowed us this year to obtain 80 batches of free-run wine and 7 batches of press wine for our blends. The high quality of the Merlot batches allowed us this year. as in 2009. to increase the proportion of this grape variety in the final blend to 30%.

The first tastings suggest a vintage very close to the 2016 with a beautiful structure of ripe. precise. concentrated tannins placing it among the great vintages of Montrose.

This is seriously built, with an admirable core of red and black currant paste and bitter plum fruit inlaid with notes of tobacco, bay and smoldering charcoal.

Chateau Montrose 2014 mit 96 Punkten bei Parkerfür den Chateau Montrose 2014 | Neal Martin März 2017:

Tasted twice in Bordeaux in the early part of 2017, the 2014 Montrose replicated its showing at the property as part of the vertical in September 2016. It has that exquisite blackberry, cedar and blood orange scented nose that feels so effervescent even at this early stage. The palate is beautifully balanced with crisp, tensile black fruit, filigree tannin, perhaps in recent months developing a little more spiciness on the finish. It is just a beautiful, regal and complete Montrose that will give decades of drinking pleasure. Tasted February 2017.

Tasted at the château, the 2014 Montrose builds on the promise it showed in barrel with gorgeous blackberry, raspberry, cedar and orange sorbet scents that are extremely pure and refined. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, very precise acidity and layers of crisp black fruit laced with vanilla from the new oak at the moment. That will be subsumed in time. What you have here is a very precise, multi-layered, almost sensual Montrose that is going to delight many for years to come. This is highly recommended—one of the finest Left Bank wines this vintage. Tasted September 2016.

The 2019 La Dame de Montrose, which I tasted in June and September 2021, has a fresh mulberry, black plum and granite-scented bouquet that is quite precocious; touches of morel appear in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, quite structured and almost Pauillac-like, thanks to veins of graphite toward the finish provided by the 48% Cabernet Sauvignon. Saline on the aftertaste, though not tremendously long, this is a very promising Deuxième Vin.

"The Merlots were so good this year that most have gone into the first wine. giving this a higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon than usual and making it a serious Dame de Montrose. with clear ageing potential. Elegant and balanced. with purity and juicy black fruits. It has that savoury Cabernet quality which is very Médocain. this is absolutely one to look out for. packed with estate signature. 30% new oak. 43% of total production. 4% Petit Verdot completes the blend. Lovely new label here also. with rose gold roses across it."

100 Punkte von Jeb DunnuckUnquestionably one of the top 2-3 wines of the vintage, the 2016 Château Montrose is a monument in the making. Checking in as a blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, and 7% Cabernet Franc raised in 60% new French oak (the balance was in once-used barrels) and representing a tiny 36% of the production, this deep purple-colored 2016 possesses powerful, incredibly classic Saint-Estephe notes of creme de cassis, graphite, damp earth, lead pencil shavings, and burning embers. With a powerful, full-bodied style on the palate, a huge mid-palate, lots of underlying structure and tannic grip, and perfect balance, this magical wine will need upwards of a decade or cellaring and keep for 40-50 years.
 

99 Parker Punkte für den Chateau Montrose 2016Lisa Perrotti Brown 30. November 2018

Deep garnet-purple in color. the 2016 Montrose is a little youthfully shy to begin. but with coaxing. it unfurls to reveal the most beguiling scents of wilted roses. oolong tea. crushed rocks. wild sage. star anise and candied violets over a wonderfully pristine. well-defined core of crushed blackcurrants. black raspberries and kirsch plus wafts of pencil lead and wood smoke. The taut. muscular. medium to full-bodied palate straddles jaw-dropping intensity and finesse superbly. featuring a solid backbone of ripe tannins and giving a firm frame right through the incredibly long. exquisitely nuanced finish.

99 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für de Chateau Montrose 2016Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau Montrose im Januar 2019 wie folgt:

The 2016 Montrose has a tightly wound bouquet that is extremely well focused. This is one of the most pixelated aromatics I can remember on a Montrose at this stage. featuring blackberry. boysenberry and cedar and real mineralité underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with fine density and wonderful salinity. There is tremendous precision with razor-sharp tannin. and a brightness on the finish that is exceptional. This is a Montrose that will comfortably sit alongside the canon of great vintages from this Saint-Estèphe estate. As my score implies. it’s up there with the first growths. Stunning.
 

98 Sucklingpunkte für den Chateau Montrose 2016 Saint EstepheJames Suckling im Februar 2019:

The floral and fresh aromas to this are mesmerizing. Roses and lilacs galore. The pure cab aromas coming from the glass – blackcurrants and blackberries – are so memorable. Full-bodied. deep and profound. The ultra-fine tannins on the palate are so polished and fine-grained. The finish goes on for minutes with subtle yet superb fruit. It’s all about precision and form here. A modern classic for Montrose. Better after 2026.
 

98 Punkte Vinous / Galloni für den Chateau Montrose 2016 Saint EstepheAntonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Montrose im Januar 2019 wie folgt:

The 2016 Montrose is every bit as impressive as it was from barrel. maybe more. Tightly wound and vertical. with remarkable intensity. the 2016 is simply magnificent. The tannins are there. but they are nearly buried by the sheer intensity of the fruit. All the elements are impeccably balanced in a wine of pedigree. depth and character. The 2016 is going to need a number of years to be at its best. but it is clearly a very special wine in the making. In a word: dazzling.

Decanter Magazine Janes Anson: 98 Punkte:

A serious wall of blueberry and blackberry compote, and a ton of savoury Cabernet sinew and freshness. This is a great Montrose, inky, broad-shouldered and structured. It needs time to aerate and open in the glass, then you see the precision, the heft, the chiselling of the fruits with a ton of graphite, cigar box and campfire smoke - huge persistency. This will need a long time and will reward patience. One of the few where a 1986, 2016 and 2010 comparison makes sense. A yield around 30hl/ha. 1% Petit Verdot, 3.86pH, IPT 80. 45% of the overall production.

 
Falstaff : 95-97 / 100

Im Duft Lakritze und Veilchen, einiges Neuholz, dazu intensive florale Noten und würzig-mineralische Aromen. Im Mund mit körniger Dichte, abgeklärt trocken, der- zeit sehr verschlossen und in sich gekehrt, aber erkennbarerweise ein ganz klas- sischer Montrose ohne Umschweife und unnötigen Ballast. Trotz der virilen Tannine trocknet der Wein nicht. Kultivierte Säure, ausgezeichnete taktile Mineralität.
