Tasting Notes

The Wine Independent Lisa Perrotti-Brown - 12 Jun 24
A blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 Montlandrie is deep garnet-purple in color. It opens with vivacious scents of kirsch, black raspberries, and wild blueberries, leading to wafts of spearmint, roses, aniseed, plus a hint of spice cake. The full-bodied palate is dense and so, so youthful, delivering beautifully ripe, rounded tannins and a long, lively finish. Pure energy.

Inside Bordeaux Jane Anson - 26 Jan 22
This is an excellent vintage of Montlandrie, with smoked coffee and cocoa bean, a ton of salinity, powerful blue and red fruits, super juicy on the finish. Enticing curled woodsmoke as it comes out of the glass, slate finish with a scrape of minerality. 40% new oak. Harvest September 30 to October 10.

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Feb 23
The 2019 Montlandrie has quite an intense nose with blackberry, briary and desiccated orange peel scents, nicely delineated and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, cedar-infused black fruit, fresh and nicely structured with a quasi-Médoc finish that conveys a sense of energy. Very fine. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.
