Produced from younger-vine parcels and fruit not destined for the Grand Vin, La Dame offers an earlier-drinking expression while retaining the distinctive character of the Montrose terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1999 has now reached a lovely stage of maturity, offering the balance and complexity that only decades in bottle can provide. The fruit has developed into a more savoury and nuanced profile, with cassis and dark cherry complemented by cedar, tobacco, leather and earthy notes. There is still plenty of freshness behind the wine, making this a particularly rewarding mature Bordeaux for those who enjoy classic, traditionally styled Saint-Estèphe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan role=\"text\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mature aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and dried cherry mingle with cedar, tobacco, cigar box, leather, graphite and subtle forest-floor notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to full-bodied, with beautifully softened tannins and a core of mature dark fruit.
