Our committee's review
Château Montus is truly one of a kind, and its wines have achieved legendary status. While Alain Brumont was the visionary who transformed Madiran and elevated the estate to the highest level, it’s now his stepson, Antoine Veiry, who has taken the reins of these iconic creations.
With the same perfectionist spirit, Antoine follows in his mentor’s footsteps, introducing more refined aging techniques and gentler extraction methods. The result is a modernized range that still preserves the distinctive character of the wines and their impressive aging potential.
The wines remain monumental in scope, showcasing remarkable precision and complexity. Yet today, they are arguably even more refined and complete than they were two decades ago—offering stunning texture on the palate and brilliantly expressive fruit flavors at the very highest level.
Awarded two stars by the French wine guide RVF, this outstanding estate shows no weakness—every wine is a triumph. The 2020 vintage is a perfect example, standing out for its remarkable balance and precision.
True to its singular identity, the 2020 Red Madiran is shaped by oak aging that’s perfectly calibrated to match the wine’s tannic structure. It opens with a warm, inviting nose featuring aromas of dark fruit, olive tapenade, and graphite. The palate is structured by velvety tannins, yet retains both freshness and intensity throughout. A superbly crafted classic—built to age, but already showing tremendous promise. Rated 94/100 by the Selection Committee.
Don’t miss this legendary name from Madiran—one of the region’s most iconic and sought-after wines!
