**2017 Château Montrose, Saint-Estèphe** This **98-point classic** opens with deep garnet-purple color and a flamboyant nose of black cherry preserves, warm cassis, and baked plums, layered with dark chocolate, licorice, and candied violets.
The palate delivers medium to full body with finely-grained tannins and impressive freshness, revealing gorgeous black fruit and a refined, lingering finish—a hallmark of Montrose’s elegant, structured style. Firm and focused now with edgy minerality and graphite notes, this wine will reward patience; broach after 5–6 years for 25–30 years of drinking pleasure. Pair with herb-crusted lamb or aged Comté cheese to showcase its complexity and tension.
