Chateau Montlandrie
Chateau Montlandrie
Spend a bit of time in the Bordeaux wine scene and it won’t be long until you hear Denis Durantou`s name pop up in conversation with a vigneron or negociant. The owner of fabled l‘Eglise-Clinet in Pomerol and Saint-Emilion’s Saintayme, amongst others, is one of Bordeaux’ most enigmatic wine personalities and his wines are some of the region’s most highly regarded. Durantou bought Chateau Montlandrie in 2009, and has swiftly increased the property’s reputation by delivering consistently excellent Merlot-based wines from the 12-hectare vineyard, with full, opulent fruit, heady spice and fine tannin. One to watch, and one to buy.
