Château Montrose--Vintage 1990
Saint-Estèphe, 2me cru classé
Tasting note: The wine remains a blockbuster, an inky/ruby/purple-coloured effort revealing stunning concentration, amazingly high glycerin, and abundant amounts of sweet black fruits intermixed with notions of earth and spice. It is a fleshy, full-bodied Saint-Estèphe with atypically high amounts of fatness and fruit extract, but it is settling down nicely and seems set for another 2-3 decades of longevity. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 183, June 2009.
