Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2020 guide) 93-94/100
3-star rating (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About wine:
A very refined wine with plenty of body, exemplary floral notes for the appellation, lots of nuance and charm. Highly recommended for its price.
About the estate:
For 25 years, Laurent von der Heyden has been proving that he produces one of the most elegant Margaux wines there is. Located on the finest gravel soils of Arsac, Monbrison draws all its refinement from this terroir, the perfect archetype of a delicate and smooth Margaux. Over the last few vintages, we have been delighted to see the wines become increasingly pure, precise, and energetic. The 2015 was impressive, and the 2016 and 2018 are just as impressive.

About the estate:
Acquired in 1922 by American Robert M. David, this estate, founded in the 18th century and dominated by an elegant manor house, was put back on track in the 1980s by his grandson Jean-Luc Vonderheyden (who died in 1992). His brother, Laurent, now runs a 14-hectare vineyard in a single block south of Margaux.

About wine:
Monbrison 2019 is classy, refined, and elegant, just as it was in the barrel. Crushed flowers, sweet berries, spices, mint, and mild pipe tobacco give this discreet and expressive Margaux an unmistakable air of finesse. 2024-2034

About wine:
The nose is very powerful with blackberry notes. The attack is supple and very appealing. The wine does not linger on the palate but coats it with a complex aromatic palette, ranging from tobacco to coffee, blackberry, and raspberry. A beautiful Margaux!
