Montus, Madiran Prestige other_regions I feel like these newStill quite dark crimson. Very south west France concentrated essence of Bordeauxish grape varieteies. Tannins have softened however, even if the colour doesn't seem to have evolved much. Just medium weight and strongly Tannat like with some rigidity. I would decant for quite a while before serving.
