Chateau Montrose - La Dame de Montrose 2003

WEINWISSER: "Gewaltig dunkles Granat, sehr dicht. Ausladendes, dunkelbeeriges Bouquet, reife, schwarze Kirschen. Reicher Gaumen, geschmeidig, wieder sehr schwarzbeerig, feine Rasse im Extrakt, im Finale Lakritze und Schwarztee. Ein beeindruckender Zweitwein, wobei das Wort «Zweitwein» bei der Klasse eigentlich völlig unpassend wirkt."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "One of the best second wines you are ever going to taste, there is a lot going on in the gravel, blackberry, cassis, tobacco and forest floor nose. Medium bodied, firm, but refined, this is probably drink at its peak today."

WINE SPECTATOR: "Aromas of ripe fruit and licorice follow through to a full-bodied palate, with velvety tannins and a caressing finish. Very well done. 2,665 cases made."
