Anmeldelser af Château Quintus Saint-Émillion Grand Cru 2020

97-98/100 James Suckling
"Wow. This is very chalky and salty with lots of mineral character. It shows lots of purple fruit and firm tannins. Racy and bright. Chewy yet fine tannins. Gorgeous. Gets better and better."

95-97/100 Robert Parker
"The 2020 Quintus is a blend of 62.5% Merlot and 37.5% Cabernet Franc, weighing in with an alcohol of 15.4%. Displaying a deep purple-black color, it leaps from the glass with bold notes of crushed blackberries, boysenberries and stewed plums, plus suggestions of chocolate mint, clove oil, lilacs and star anise. The full-bodied palate is densely laden with rich black fruits and floral accents, framed by well-balanced acidity and finely grained tannins, finishing with great length and impressive energy. Judging from this barrel sample, this is the finest, most complex and complete Quintus yet—bravo!"

95-97/100 Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
"Deeply colored, the wine is packed with nuances of crushed rocks, black raspberries, flowers, plums and forest leaves. Extremely poised and polished, the silky palate offers purity in the fruit, length and the sense of minerality, finishing with an array of red pit fruits, cocoa and salty tannins. The wine blends 62.5% Merlot with 37.5% Cabernet Franc, 15.2% ABV."

"A big, velvety textured wine, especially in the vintage, the 2020 Château Quintus offers a gorgeous array of pure crème de cassis and black raspberry fruits as well as leafy herbs, graphite, and chocolate. These all carry to a full-bodied Saint-Emilion with a round, mouth-filling texture, ripe tannins, and a great finish. This estate has been firing on all cylinders of late, and this should be in the same realm as the 2016, 2018, and I suspect, the 2019."

95/100 Christer Byklum
”A very fine Quintus and it suits this more vigorous and almost mineral style it shows this vintage.”

93-95/100 Falstaff
“Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, subtle water edge. Black berry fruit underlaid with tobacco, nuances of blackberries, delicate floral notes. Juicy, ripe heart cherries, sweet texture, freshly structured, mineral-lemony, nuances of cassis, balanced and well adherent, certain ripening potential.”

”A well balanced wine with excellent length.”

94/100 Vert de Vin Magazine
”On the nose, fruity and offers concentration, freshness, delicacy as well as a certain intensity. It reveals notes of pulpy / ripe black currant, boysenberry with slight hints of violet along with blueberry, fleshy wild strawberries as well as delicate notes of camphor, black tea, pepper, and subtle wafts of nutmeg and sweet tobacco. On the palate, fruity, refined and in balance, and offers juiciness, smoothness, freshness, good definition, with a certain delicacy and finesse. The wine expresses notes of pulpy / bright blackcurrant, blackberry and slight notes of raspberry along with touches of lily, lilac, blueberry, liquorice, madagascar pepper as well as hints of chocolate, caramelization, with delicate hints of toast, vanilla, black tea and cardamom. Good length.”

"The 2020 Quintus is very delineated and focused on the nose, offering ebullient black cherries and raspberry fruit, crushed stone and a subtle marine element that develops with aeration; great energy here. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins, a perfect line of acidity and just a slight bitterness that imparts the necessary tension and sapidity on the finish. This is a very suave Saint-Émilion that will be difficult to resist in its youth."

92-94/100 Le Figaro

93/100 Decanter
"Exuberant and confident, with powerful damson and black cherry fruit flavours on the nose. Chocolate and liquorice run through the palate from beginning to end, and this is full of signature St-Emilion glamour. It has a round and supple texture through the mid palate, but the alcohol hides some of the limestone nuance at this point - it will no doubt emerge more clearly with 8 to 10 years in bottle. Harvest 11th September for the Merlot grapes and 23rd September for the Cabernet Franc."
