Château Quintus was created in 2011 when Domaine Clarence Dillon (owners of Château Haut-Brion) acquired and merged the historic Tertre Daugay and L'Arrosée estates, applying the same meticulous, precision-driven winemaking philosophy that's defined Haut-Brion for generations. Sitting on the limestone plateau above the Dordogne with a mix of clay and gravel soils, the property is a Merlot-dominant blend with Cabernet Franc. The 2017 shows ripe dark fruit, cassis, and a touch of graphite on the nose, with a full-bodied, structured palate, refined tannins, and real length. Serious, ambitious Saint-Émilion from one of Bordeaux's most prestigious ownership groups.

94 Points
"The 2017 Quintus is super impressive today. Sweet floral and spice nuances give the 2017 its striking aromatic upper register. Rich and dense on the palate, Quintus is a bold, hedonistically opulent SaintÉmilion in 2017. Soaring Franc overtones play off the Merlot nicely,adding both aromatic presence and a real feeling of saline intensity that comes through, especially on the finish. Today, the 2017 is a touch
exuberant - almost too much so. Another few years in bottle should help it settle down. The 2017 is not at all subtle, but it has a lot to offer. Here, too, élevage has done wonders for the wine"
