Chateau Montrose is a prestigious estate in the Saint-Estephe appellation of Bordeaux, France. The vineyards are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. The grapes are hand-harvested and sorted before fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and is aged in French oak barrels, with a significant portion being new oak, for 18-24 months. This process adds layers of complexity and depth, resulting in a powerful and elegant wine.
