Tasting Notes
Bright ruby with youthful clarity. The nose is open and inviting, revealing red cherry, raspberry and ripe plum, layered with hints of violet, soft spice and crushed stone.
On the palate, the wine is smooth and flowing. Fresh red and dark fruit glide across fine, supple tannins, supported by lively acidity. The finish is clean and gently savoury, leaving a light mineral impression that keeps the wine agile and refreshing.
Food Pairing
This wine is naturally adaptable at the table. It pairs beautifully with roast chicken, grilled lamb, pasta with rich sauces, mushroom dishes and casual bistro fare. Its supple texture also makes it an excellent match for cheese boards and relaxed shared plates, where balance and approachability matter.
Description
Le Saint-Émilion de Quintus offers a direct, approachable entry into the Quintus estate style. While Le Dragon focuses on depth and structure, this cuvée highlights clarity, energy and immediate charm.
The 2020 vintage delivered ripe fruit and natural balance, allowing the wine to express Saint-Émilion’s limestone influence in a more fluid, accessible form. It is designed to open early while remaining true to the estate’s precision and discipline.
