Made in Saint-Estèphe, it offers a more approachable, fruit-driven expression of the estate’s grand vin while still carrying the depth and refinement that define this historic property.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep and polished in the glass, this 2022 shows ripe black fruit at its core, with aromas of cassis, blackberry, spice, cedar, and a subtle floral lift. On the palate it is full-bodied and generous, yet nicely composed, with ripe tannins, juicy fruit, and a long, harmonious finish.\n\nThe wine has the structure to age gracefully for several years, but its supple style also makes it appealing earlier than the grand vin. In a vintage like 2022, it balances concentration and freshness with impressive charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe vineyards sit close to the Gironde, where the river helps moderate temperatures and create a balanced microclimate that is especially valuable in warm years. Grapes are harvested selectively by hand, then vinified parcel by parcel to preserve precision and site expression, before maturation for around 18 months in French oak barrels with a moderate proportion of new wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a classic match for grilled or roasted beef, lamb, game, and other richly flavoured meat dishes, as well as mature cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if opening young to allow the aromatics and texture to fully open up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau Montrose has built a formidable reputation as one of the leading estates in Saint-Estèphe and the Médoc, with a long history of producing powerful, ageworthy Bordeaux. La Dame de Montrose reflects the same standards of vineyard care and cellar precision, offering a more approachable introduction to the estate’s style while maintaining a clear link to its prestigious lineage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bottle Hero","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54256282042705,"sku":"FFWS-2346","price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/unnamed.jpg?v=1783463205","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/2022-la-dame-de-montrose-chateau-montrose-saint-estephe-075l","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
