72% merlot, 28% cabernet sauvignon. Very primary fruit on the nose, with blackberry and black cherry, a hint of brioche and a touch of loamy earth. The bright acidity highlights the fruit on the palate, with moderate tannic structure carrying through to a drying finish. Notes of minerality provide highlights on the palate, accentuating the fruit and providing a sense of overall complexity. An excellent second wine to Montrose, this should be drinkable within 4-5 years with best drinking between 2017-2022.

A little lean with spices and berries. Minerals too. Medium body, with fine tannins and a delicately fruity finish. Second wine of Montrose. 72% Merlot -- much more than normal. 28% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Initially this seems soft, but with time the more powerful fruit character comes through. It has weight, with a dark chocolate and spice intensity. -R.V.
