Such is the elegance on display here that it belies the power and length

Not as overtly juicy as some

and it’s a stunner

2009 Chateau Montrose Saint-Estephe Chardonnay Such is the elegance on100 points, The Wine Advocate "A brilliant wine that stands out as one of the high points of the vintage, the 2009 Montrose unwinds in the glass with a rich and incipiently complex bouquet of dark berries, cigar wrapper and loamy soil, framed by a deftly judged touch of new oak. Full bodied, broad and enveloping, it's a velvety, layered and impressively dynamic wine that's deep and concentrated, exhibiting terrific balance and a long, resonant finish.
