Surpassing the 2019 and rivaling the 2016 as this estate's finest vintage of the last few decades, the 2020 Montrose is a monument in the making. Wafting from the glass with aromas of violets, dark berries, licorice, loamy soil, black truffle and subtle spices, it's full-bodied, deep and layered, with a seamless, elegantly muscular profile, terrific purity and energy, beautifully powdery tannins and a long, resonant finish. It checks in at 13.7% alcohol, the same as the superb 2009, but it is even deeper, more vibrant and more complex than the 2009. This will be worth a special effort to seek out and only confirms Montrose's status as one of the contemporary Médoc's leading estates and a de facto first growth.

這款酒有著濃郁的藍(lán)莓和黑莓糖漬水果芳香，伴有大量赤霞珠（Cabernet Sauvignon）帶來的力量和清新感。這是一款卓越的玫瑰山莊園紅葡萄酒，顏色深濃，結(jié)構(gòu)宏大，需要一些時間才能在杯中綻放，之后便能感受到它的鮮明個性和份量感，濃郁的果味交織著豐富的石墨、雪茄盒和篝火煙的氣息，經(jīng)久不散。這款酒需要很長時間才能完全綻放，但所有的等待都將得到回報。2020年是少數(shù)能與1986、2016和2010這幾個年份相提并論的年份之一。葡萄產(chǎn)量約為3,000升/公頃，混釀中加入了1%的味而多（Petit Verdot），成酒pH值為3.86，多酚總指標(biāo)IPT為80。這款酒的產(chǎn)量占據(jù)酒莊總產(chǎn)量的45%。

這是玫瑰山莊園最精致的期酒之一，其標(biāo)志性的單寧擁有絲滑且精細(xì)的質(zhì)地，令人驚嘆，同時不乏深度。
