Tasted blind. Full and sweet and alcoholic. Rich and a bit jagged, hot and alcoholic. Hard work. (JR)

The deep, meaty and earthy nose pulls you into this concentrated and beautifully balanced St.-Emilion. Stunning interplay of fine and graceful tannins with restrained richness. Very long, fresh and light-footed finish. Drink or hold. Château Quintus vertical tasting. SP.
Tasted blind. Light nose of rose petals. Sweet start and then some dryness on the end. Interesting and distinctive. Definitely sets out to charm. (JR)
The 2018 Quintus has gained more exuberance and intensity on the nose since its showing in barrel, offering flamboyant black fruit, blueberry, crushed violet petals and potpourri, all very well defined. A light menthol scent emerges with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp black fruit, tobacco and light cedar aromas. Like the Second Wine, this has emerged with a Left Bank–inspired personality, lightly spiced on the precise, quite minerally finish. Excellent.
