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。

2018 - 2035
Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Montrose has a crisp, earthy, tobacco-scented bouquet with sage and clove developing in the glass—clearly a Saint Estèphe that is determined to succeed in an off-vintage, which this estate is masterful at doing. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin. This bottle felt compact for this vintage, one of the few 2007s that merit decanting. However, there is undeniably plenty of freshness and a welcome touch of spice towards the finish. Linear in style, this is one of the few 2007s that should improve with bottle age. Tasted February 2017.
