Chateau Montrose La Dame de Montrose 2018 is a concentrated, structured Saint-Estèphe with vibrant blackcurrant, blackberry and plum tones layered over hints of wild herbs, earth and spice. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with ripe yet firm tannins giving a powerful frame to the juicy dark fruit and a long, savory finish. Built with more depth and density than many second wines, it promises rewarding evolution in bottle.

La Dame de Montrose is the Merlot‑leaning second wine of Château Montrose, crafted from the same gravel-and-clay Saint-Estèphe vineyards and made to similar exacting standards as the grand vin. Created in 1983 as a tribute to former owner Yvonne Charmolüe, it typically blends Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon plus small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, yielding a supple, earlier‑drinking Bordeaux that still reflects Montrose’s graphite‑tinged structure and deep red and black‑fruit character.
