Château Montrose 2022 is a definitive titan of Saint-Estèphe, widely hailed by critics as a "Super Second" performing with First Growth precision. Under the Bouygues family’s stewardship, the estate has undergone a $55 million evolution, culminating in a 2022 release that captures the sheer power and iron-laced mineralité of the Gironde estuary’s most historic gravel terraces.

The 2022 Montrose is a "blue chip" acquisition for serious Bordeaux cellars. Its rare sweep of 100-point scores makes it a foundational asset for those tracking the high-water marks of the 21st century. Bottles offered here are stored at ideal cellar temperature, with priority given to Original Wooden Cases (OWC) for multi-unit orders. Given its structural density and Estuary provenance, this vintage carries a potential drinking window extending through 2065 and beyond.

Designed for the long term; most critics suggest 10–12 years of bottle age before approaching. If enjoying early, a 3-hour decant is mandatory. Serve at 60–64°F in a large Bordeaux glass. Pairs peerlessly with grilled ribeye, roasted game, or aged hard cheeses like Mimolette.
