此酒堡座落在一塊小山坡地上，眺望著Gironde River吉隆河，有著得天獨厚的地理位置。當中午水氣氤氳時，整座山彷彿被一片的玫瑰花色給迷漫，也閉O這樣所以莊主將她取名為「玫瑰山」，Montrose的mont是山之意，”t”不發音，rose就是玫瑰花。
這座「玫瑰山」酒堡，可不像其名這樣的女性化，她所釀之酒沒有20年的陳年工夫，她還真不開竅，像個小處女一樣地封閉。蒙特蘿斯堡以釀產酒體廣大、深沉複雜且厚實有力的酒著稱。莊主認為單寧強勁的酒體已非潮流，所以曾經在70年代的晚期到80年代的初期這段時期，試著增加Merlot美露的比率以淡化酒體，沒想到這項之舉卻未得到蒙特蘿斯始終派的讚賞，所以1986年後又恢復原本的傳統，走較男性化的酒體風格，所以她又有the Latour of St.-Estephe「聖達斯特夫的拉圖堡」之稱。

Tasted at the château, the 2006 Montrose has mostly been very inconsistent and frankly disappointing for such a consistent estate. Apart from one bottle, I have been unimpressed and there could well be a reason, given that it was a "dropped catch" between the change in ownership. It is a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon and 38% Merlot, picked between 18 September and 3 October. It was the first vintage where green harvesting was conducted all over the estate and yields were 41 hectoliters per hectare. Frankly, this has long been a disappointing Montrose for me and this bottle did nothing to alter that view. The nose just lacks fruité and energy, not as green as I have encountered with other bottles, but just missing personality and intensity. The palate is medium-bodied and chewy in the mouth. Where is the precision and the tension? It just feels static and for want of a better word, rather dull on the finish. Sorry, this 2006 has never done it for me. Tasted September 2016.
