1996 Château Montus Prestige Madiran

Norbert says:

Vine growing in this area is at least as old as the founding of the Benedictine Abbey in the Middle Ages, in the small town of Madiran. Wines with a high proportion of tannate taste best after 20-40 years. It's worth storing them for so long. The superb nose of the first-class aging in wood, but also of perfectly ripe berries, of unbelievable, irrepressible and yet amazingly civilized, high-class power, rich in extracts, but also with immense freshness and right in the finale of pink grapefruit. Expected maturity now until 2050.
