Le Dragon de Quintus, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2020

Chateau Quintus

The wine presents a powerful, fruity first nose, whereas after swirling woody, vanilla-scented hints mingle with aromas of ripe black fruit.
A spicy note follows and gives lovely complexity.
The first taste is supple and silky, then the wine progresses on a delicate, tightly-knit texture of tannin.
The sensation of fleshiness persists, flavours of fruit combine with woody notes and make the wine very charming.

"The 2020 Dragon de Quintus exhibits rich aromas of plums, cassis, dark berries and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy palate that's ample and enveloping, finishing with a slightly heady, kirsch-inflected finish that reflects its lofty alcoholic degree."
