The Story
Perched on the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, Château Quintus reveals expressive aromas of black cherry, cassis, blackberry, violet, graphite, cedar, and cocoa. Richly concentrated yet beautifully refined, it delivers velvety tannins, vibrant freshness, remarkable precision, and a long, elegant finish with exceptional aging potential.
Food Pairing: Pair with beef Wellington, roast lamb, duck breast, venison, truffle potatoes, aged Comté, wild mushrooms, or braised short ribs.
95 Points - James Suckling
The brightness and transparency of the aromas are impressive, with fresh flowers, blue fruit, crushed stones, lavender and orange blossoms. Medium-bodied, with a tight and focused palate of linear and integrated tannins. Fresh and tangy. Vivid at the end. A unique expression of the vintage and St. Emilion, with so much crunchy fruit. 68.2% merlot, 31.3% cabernet franc and 0.5% malbec. Best after 2027.
