CHÂTEAU MONTUS benefits from a large terroir, unique in the South-West, with a steep slope with large pebbles on fine clay from the Pyrenees. The miracle took place in 1985 when this wine upset the hierarchy of great mythical red wines and was noticed around the world with its Tannat grape. Nicknamed “the Pétrus of the South-West” by a dozen critics for 30 years, Château Montus expresses all the qualities of these exceptional terroirs.
