The estate was ranked as a second growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, and is regarded as one of the very best properties at that level. The château is unusual in that it is more of a small hamlet than a single castle or estate. This is due to extensive estate developments in the late 19th Century. The epitome of the Saint-Estèphe appellation, Montrose's top wine is known for its structure (even austerity) in youth, but beguiling many as it ages. The grand vin, composed largely of Cabernet Sauvignon with some Merlot, is typically deeply colored, powerful and firm when young, but has superb aging potential. The second wine is La Dame de Montrose; the third is Saint-Estèphe de Château Montrose.\u003cbr\u003eThe 95-hectare (235-acre) vineyard exists, unusually for modern Bordeaux, as one single entity. It is sited on an exposed site of deep, coarse gravels with sand and a little clay, overlooking the Gironde. The immediate proximity of the water has a moderating effect on both frost and summer heat, and the pebbles in the soil retain daytime warmth into the evening, aiding ripening. The château is situated around three kilometers (1.8 miles) northeast of Château Cos d'Estournel (another so-called \"super-second\" – i.e. a highly regarded second growth estate) on the border with the Pauillac appellation.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-08T16:48:39-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-24T10:31:29-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","LK2402","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Château Montrose","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Bestofwines0223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":89999,"price_min":89999,"price_max":89999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42802410291338,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2010 | Château Montrose | Saint-Estephe","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":89999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/48_5b4a6a88-635d-4d3c-b5f1-8340dcc2770a.jpg?v=1677252722"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/48_5b4a6a88-635d-4d3c-b5f1-8340dcc2770a.jpg?v=1677252722","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2010 | Château Montrose | Saint-Estephe at CaskCartel.com","id":24285227450506,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.431,"height":701,"width":302,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/48_5b4a6a88-635d-4d3c-b5f1-8340dcc2770a.jpg?v=1677252722"},"aspect_ratio":0.431,"height":701,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/48_5b4a6a88-635d-4d3c-b5f1-8340dcc2770a.jpg?v=1677252722","width":302}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2010 | Château Montrose | Saint-Estephe\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA perfumed and pure Montrose, with lots of currants, berries and spices that evolve to chocolate and light coffee.
