Always a great bargain in Restaurants in Paris...Ch Montus XL 1994, 12.5%, it always need time, 22 years have served it well to soft the tannins...smooth and velvet

I can't believe restaurant #walterbauer even had this! One of my all-time fav #madiran producers. Still tight after 20 years!

The secondary and tertiary notes are on full display at year 25, yet there are still blackberry and raspberry lingering around. It’s rich, powerful, and silky smooth on the palate. Very rustic and savory yet so refined. The tannins are resolved but there is plenty of acidity to hold this for 5-6 more years before its slow descent.
Somewhat reminds me of Musar.

Really excellent. Nice variety for once, like a scrambled top-flight Graves with, well, fiery tannins.

フランス南西地方（ボルドーの下）はピレネー地区のAOCマディラン。品種はタナ。まぁまぁかな。
