Back in the early 1800s, what is now the Montrose property was actually part of the Calon Segur estate. Then-owner of Calon Segur Etienne Dumoulin identified part of the property as having a unique hillside gravel terroir and separated it out, creating what is now Montrose; eventually the Dumoulins sold Calon Segur and kept Montrose. From those days on Montrose changed hands three times, most recently in 2006 when it was bought by Martin and Thomas Bouygues, owners of Bouygues Telecom and Bouygues Construction, who brought in new management and entered on an intensive renovation project. Arguably, Montrose has been producing one of the best wines in all of Bordeaux for centuries, and this 2015 vintage continues in that tradition: it is a wine of great richness, complexity and polish. Packed with power and tannins, it has bushels of ripe fruit flavors in every mouthful.
