Beautiful aromas of blackberries and blackcurrants with licorice and tile, following through to a medium to full body with fine tannins and a delicious, creamy finish. So attractive. Second wine. Best after 2025.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Bramble berries on the nose, quite rich. Lovely texture, bright, bold and charismatic - great charm, this shines bright in the glass and on the palate, lovely and round full of rich flavours with enough body and structure to give good mouthfeel without being too heavy right now. On the right side of elegant with a lovely purity of cherry and strawberry flavours. This has some bite and chew too. Good plushness but still with purity of flavour. Not massively complex but delivers a good punchy wine. Confident. 86% Merlot and 14% Cabernet Franc. Drinking Window 2023 - 2035.

The second wine of Château Quintus, the 2019 Le Dragon De Quintus offers a rich, ripe style that carries beautiful black raspberry and chocolate-covered cherry fruits as well as medium to full-bodied richness, supple, sweet tannins, loads of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's a terrific second wine that's going to represent a great value. It should keep for a solid decade or more.

The 2019 Le Dragon de Quintus has an attractive nose with a fair amount of new oak, creamier in style, but there is substance behind it. The palate is flattering with plush black fruit, lightly spiced, fine depth and cohesion with a dash of black pepper towards the persistent finish. Lovely. You could almost broach this now. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.

Wine Advocate

The 2018 le Dragon de Quintus is composed of 75.2% Merlot and 24.8% Cabernet Franc. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it delivers expressive scents of plum preserves, blueberry compote and kirsch, plus suggestions of spice cake, fallen leaves and unsmoked cigars. The palate is full-bodied with bags of black fruit preserves and an earthy undercurrent, framed by soft tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with a spicy kick.

Wine Spectator

This fresh and pure version has refined edges, thanks to subtle chalky minerality, with a gentle core of damson plum and dark cherry fruit that glides through easily. Features an incense hint that swirls on the finish. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2029.
