La Dame de Montrose 2020, St Estèphe
£49.95 per bottle
It is worth noting the first wine was scored 100 points by William Kelley, Wine Advocate so this second wine offers superb value for money.
Blackcurrants with crushed stone and slate. Lead pencil. Medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins and precision. Fantastic length and focus. One of the best Dames I have had. Organically grown grapes. 48% merlot, 46% cabernet sauvignon and 3% petit verdot and cabernet franc.
