Château Montrose appears in history during the 19th century thanks to Théodore Dumoulin. This “young” estate is just a few years old in the 1855 classification and benefits from the most beautiful vineyard of the appellation.
Montrose had been owned by Jean-Louis Charmolue from 1962 until 2006, when it was sold to Martin and Olivier Bouygues.
Montrose’s wine is typically a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc and is matured in oak barriques (30% new) for 18 months.
The wines perpetuate the tradition of power and density, characteristic of the “classic” style of the great Saint-Estèphe.
