Chateau Montrose, situated in the Saint-Estèphe appellation of Bordeaux, is revered for its grandeur, terroir-driven wines, and rich history. Dating back to the early 19th century, the estate spans 95 hectares of vineyards planted primarily with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The gravelly soils overlaying a clay and limestone subsoil provide excellent drainage and impart structure and complexity to their wines. Under the ownership of Martin and Olivier Bouygues since 2006, Montrose has undergone significant investments and improvements. Their Grand Vin is acclaimed for its power, concentration, and aging potential, representing the essence of Saint-Estèphe. Vinified with precision and aged in oak barrels, the wine develops depth, complexity, and a distinctive mineral character that reflects their unique terroir. La Dame de Montrose, their second wine, offers a more approachable expression of their terroir while maintaining the estate’s commitment to quality and craftsmanship. The chateau itself is a masterpiece of classic Bordeaux architecture, with its historic tower and majestic facade overlooking sweeping vineyards and the Gironde estuary. Chateau Montrose continues to set the standard for Saint-Estèphe wines, crafting wines that embody the power, elegance, and age-worthiness of their prestigious appellation. Each vintage reflects their dedication to excellence in winemaking and their commitment to preserving their heritage.
