Note di degustazione
A gorgeous wine, the 2010 Château Monbousquet has a perfumed, complex bouquet of ripe black fruits, white truffle, leather, and savory floral nuances. Beautifully textured, full-bodied, ripe, and concentrated, yet with a light, velvety mouthfeel, it's drinking at point, with another decade of longevity. Drink 2025-2035.

The 2010 Monbousquet has plenty of blackberry, boysenberry jam and fig aromas on the intense nose, well defined with hints of dried honey in the background. It improves with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip, plenty of body and depth with multi-layered black fruit, tobacco and white pepper notes, leading to a slightly tarry, grippy finish. This could be a long-term proposition. (NM)
Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Monbousquet slides effortlessly out of the glass with seductive notes of baked plums, blackberry compote and dried mulberries plus hints of espresso, black olives and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is firmly structured with chewy tannins and lively acidity framing the Rubenesque fruit, finishing long and savory.
Tasted blind. Deep smudgy garnet. A bit stalky on the nose but also a marked mocha (oak?) aroma. Chewy, thick and oaky on the palate too but there’s decent fruit to keep the walls of tannin apart. Pretty tough but maybe just needs a lot more time? (JH)
