Château Montrose Saint-Estèphe 2016 – Premier Grand Cru Classé
Experience the unrivalled elegance and power of Château Montrose Saint-Estèphe 2016, a Premier Grand Cru Classé from the iconic Bordeaux region of France. Crafted from a masterful blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, and 7% Cabernet Franc, this vintage exemplifies the estate’s reputation for excellence and long-term ageing potential.
Tasting Notes – A 100-Point Vintage
The 2016 vintage of Château Montrose is deep garnet-purple in colour, exuding intense aromas of crème de cassis, blackberry compote, and ripe blueberries. Subtle undertones of menthol, dark chocolate, liquorice, and earthy bark add depth, while hints of crushed rocks deliver a mineral finish. On the palate, this wine is medium-bodied yet richly expressive, bursting with lively black fruit, structured tannins, and a velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long, vibrant, and impeccably balanced.
“100 Points” – Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, The Wine Independent, September 2023
“One of the top wines of the 2016 vintage – layered, refined, and built to last.”

Winery | A blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, and 7% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Montrose is deep garnet-purple in colour. It comes tearing out of the glass with rambunctious scents of creme de cassis, juicy blackberries, and blueberry pie, leading to hints of menthol, dark chocolate, liquorice, and tree bark with a touch of crushed rocks. The medium-bodied palate is chock full of bright black fruits with loads of spicy sparks and a firm, wonderfully velvety texture, finishing long and energetic. 2028-2065 |
