Note di degustazione
The 2019 Chateau Montus demonstrates this property’s evolving style, exhibiting more density and seriousness without more extraction than its 2016 counterparts. It offers up aromas of loamy soils, blueberries, mulberries, spices and pencil lead, followed by a round, enveloping, charming palate with a layered core of fruit and a long, velvety and penetrating finish. This blend, consisting of 80% Tannat and 20% Cabernet Franc, showcases the roundness and fleshiness of clay soils. Keep it over the next decade and beyond.

Meat, black cherry, firmly tannic on the palate leaving a long leathery finish with more tarriness than Nebbiolo. A true vin de garde , and convincing in its uncompromised intensity. (RH)
Neatly blending 80% Tannat with 20% Cabernet Franc, the 2019 Château Montus is a wine of character and class. Pencil shavings, cedar wood, black cherry, black plum and forest floor are front and center. Time in the glass brings out iodine and herbal nuances. High levels of polished tannins elegantly frame this streamlined 2019 red that’s totally focused. It spent the first year in barriques (50% new) followed by two years in large 80-hectoliter foudres .
