Château Montus : Prestige 2017
Sud-Ouest - Madiran - Red Wine -Since its creation in 1985, the Cuvée Prestige has been made from 100% Tannat planted on the estate's highest and warmest plots, facing south on red clay and river stone soils. This 2017 vintage in the Madiran appellation is matured for 12 months in barrels, 50% of which are new, followed by 24 months in tuns. The wine is bottled after 36 months' ageing and will remain in bottle for 2 years before being released.
Tasting notes :
Colour: Dark ruby
Nose: Generous and deep, with notes of balsamic and cocoa.
On the palate: An atypical, generous character. Aromas of balsamic, chimney tar and cocoa, much sought-after by cigar enthusiasts.
12bouteilles advice: This wine can be enjoyed now. It is gradually acquiring its mature character while retaining its fruitiness. Be sure to decant it before serving, between 16°C and 18°C. This red goes wonderfully well with red meats, chocolate desserts and red fruit.
Château Montus is located in the South-West of France, near the towns of Pau and Tarbes. The estate is run by Alain Brumont. The vineyard extends over 190 hectares on a unique terroir. The cuvée Prestige is the estate's flagship wine. It has propelled Alain Brumont to the top of the Madiran appellation. In fact, he is nicknamed ‘The Petrus’ of Madiran.
