CHATEAU MONTROSE ST ESTEPHE 2018 750ML @Deerfoot Meadows [1036164]

Deep garnet-purple in color. Vibrant scents of crushed blackberries, preserved plums and cassis with suggestions of star anise, cedar chest, underbrush, and spices, plus an emerging waft of violets. The full-bodied palate features the most exquisitely ripe tannins, offering a rock-solid backbone with tons of freshness lifting the taut, muscular fruit, finishes long and mineral laced.
