Wine Description
La Dame de Montrose 2022 displays a deep ruby colour with violet highlights. The nose is expressive and elegant, offering aromas of ripe blackberries, cassis, crushed violets, graphite, and hints of cedar. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with silky tannins and a fresh mineral edge, showing flavours of dark plum, tobacco leaf, and baking spices. The wine is beautifully balanced, with a refined texture and a persistent, savoury finish.
