Description

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (90)

The 2021 La Dame de Montrose is a worthy counterpoint to the grand vin, shedding a touch of youthful reduction in the glass to reveal aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with exotic spices, orange zest and petals. Medium to full-bodied, suave and sensual, it’s layered and complete, with a lively, charming profile.

James Suckling (92)

This juicy red shows cedar and berry character, spices and hints of dried roses. Medium body with a savory finish and round and easy tannins. Drink now.

Jancis Robinson (16.50)

53% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc.
Darkest purple-crimson. Rich, dark fruit aroma. This has finesse and freshness and is one of the better-balanced 2021s in this line-up even with quite marked acidity. Dry, relatively light tannins. Perhaps slightly lacking in flesh in the middle.

Vinous (92)

The 2021 La Dame de Montrose is a very serious second wine. Dark, pliant and super-expressive, the 2021 possesses notable depth and class to burn. Dark red/black fruit, graphite, spice, new leather and incense build as this deep, beautifully resonant Saint-Estèphe gains volume in the glass. This is impeccably done.

Jeb Dunnuck (90)

A blend of 53% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, the 2021 La Dame De Montrose is another impeccably made wine from this château, which has been playing at a First Growth level for many years now. Beautiful red cherries, currants, sappy tobacco, and some floral notes, as well as some classic Saint-Estèphe damp earth, all define the aromatics, and it’s medium-bodied, with fine tannins and outstanding overall balance. Give it 2-3 years and enjoy bottles over the following decades. I love its purity of fruit.
