Last Tasted 6/92 Bordeaux old-timers agree that Montrose is the only wine capable of matching the impressive longevity of the famed Chateau Latour. That belief was certainly justified by the 1928, a vintage that produced some of the most tannic, backward wines ever. Aromas of volatile acidity add rather than detract from the sweet, cedary, herb, and plum-scented nose. In the mouth, this amazingly fresh, mammoth wine exhibits extraordinary depth and richness. Not surprisingly, it still reveals significant quantities of tannin! There is gorgeous extraction, as well as a rustic quality to the massive feel of this amazingly young wine. Pity those who bought it in the early 1930s expecting to drink it in their lifetimes!
