Description
Château Montus 2016: a red wine with great roundness
Château Montus is produced in the Madiran appellation. Aged 30 years on average, the vineyard benefits from steep slopes with round pebbles and subsoils of brown and orange clay. The wine is aged in barrels for 12 to 14 months depending on the year. The 2016 vintage blends 80% Tannat and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The 2016 vintage at Château Montus saw a mild winter and spring, which led to an early development of the vine. The summer, more lukewarm and rather dry, slowed down the evolution of the vine. However, the rain in September managed to perfect the ripening of the grapes, picked at the perfect moment.
The Château Montus 2016 displays a style typical to the property, showing itself to be rich, elegant and deep. It develops harmonious aromas of red fruits, along with subtle peppery notes and a woody vanilla. The wine shows a beautiful maturity and roundness on the palate.
