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。

A brilliant wine that stands out as one of the high points of the vintage, the 2009 Montrose unwinds in the glass with a rich and incipiently complex bouquet of dark berries, cigar wrapper and loamy soil, framed by a deftly judged touch of new oak. Full-bodied, broad and enveloping, it's a velvety, layered and impressively dynamic wine that's deep and concentrated, exhibiting terrific balance and a long, resonant finish. While it is still five or six years away from showing all its cards, I have drunk this benchmark for contemporary Montrose with immense pleasure three times this year. In style, it's hard to find an obvious comparison (and I have drunk Montrose back to 1895), but I would be inclined to invoke a fresher, more complete and more powerful version of the estate's very successful 2003.
