The 2008 La Dame de Montrose has a very austere and reserved bouquet, broody and earthy and frankly not much fun at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with dry tannin. This is masculine in style, dark plum and dark chocolate with a slightly smudged finish that does not exactly encourage another sip. I wonder if this deuxième vin peaked already? Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 10-Year On tasting.

Tasted blind. Dark lustrous crimson. Meaty nose that some may accuse of being over the top. Round and thick. Needs a little bit more lift. (JR)

Supple and with marked acidity and some careful oak treatment. Ambitious wine with considerable potential. (JR)
