1989 Chateau Montrose Saint Estephe
INT'L VIVINO CHAPTER DAY 1
Served double blind as usual, but this was the last of the 13 bottles we drank that night, I was numb on the senses already, but was still sober on my note taking. Funky, fishy, salty, strong smoke and strong vanilla on the nose. Even though the palette was rich, strong vanilla and I can sense it was from a hot year, but the bottle appeared to be very tired, probably due to provenance issue. I gave up guessing at this point.
