Was looking forward to trying lone bottle of 1996 Montrose, but could not find it in a recent cellar inventory. We only drink bottles like this when we make great dinners (maybe once a month), but pics from those meals don't show this bottle being consumed, nor do we remember drinking it. It was being poured as a promo at an LCBO tasting last May and I remember really enjoying it and looking forward to popping our bottle. We just cleaned the numerous boxes of empties out of the garage today to return to the LCBO and an empty Montrose bottle was not among them. We are stumped...if we drank more bottles at this level I would chaulk it up to forgotten consumption, but all the empties from nice dinners over the last 6 or 7 months were accounted for in the boxes of empties. Certainly bottles don't just vanish, I conclude we must have consumed it, but we usually have such a good recall of specific bottles that our inability to clearly recall this bottle has us scratching our heads...BAH
