Brumont had inherited the Château Bouscassé property from his father in 1979 and, just a year later, purchased Montus so he could explore his own vision for Madiran. He released his first vintage of Montus in 1982.

La Tyre became Madiran's first single-vineyard cuvée and has enjoyed considerable success. The property is located in the Madiran heartland, near the foot of the Pyrenees, and the vineyards are shot through with large red pebbles. La Tyre and the Cuvée Prestige are made in this terroir, along with several other wines, including an unusual sweet Tannat and a oak-aged, dry white Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh (effectively Madiran's white wine appellation).\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-07-24T16:34:14-04:00","created_at":"2023-07-19T17:21:53-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK1907","Other_Wine","Producer_Château Montus","Region_Madiran","Source_Bestofwines0723","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Tannat"],"price":123595,"price_min":123595,"price_max":123595,"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":43043819618442,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2010 | Château Montus | La Tyre (Magnum)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":123595,"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\/files\/48_33edcf7f-86ef-48cc-815e-3099e2ff43ee.webp?v=1689801733"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/48_33edcf7f-86ef-48cc-815e-3099e2ff43ee.webp?v=1689801733","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2010 | Château Montus | La Tyre (Magnum) at CaskCartel.com","id":24818687901834,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.554,"height":1000,"width":554,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/48_33edcf7f-86ef-48cc-815e-3099e2ff43ee.webp?v=1689801733"},"aspect_ratio":0.554,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/48_33edcf7f-86ef-48cc-815e-3099e2ff43ee.webp?v=1689801733","width":554}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2010 | Château Montus | La Tyre (Magnum)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a sumptuous bouquet of dark berries, cherry, flowers and spices, intertwined with a perfectly integrated oaky frame.
