It shows lots of purple fruit and firm tannins. Racy and bright. Chewy yet fine tannins. Gorgeous. Gets better and better. - James Suckling. Bottled in May 2022, the 2020 Quintus is deep garnet-purple colored. It bursts with flamboyant black cherry compote, blueberry preserves, and Christmas cake scents, leading to subtle suggestions of candied violets, crushed rocks, and camphor. Full-bodied, the palate explodes with energetic black and blue fruits, supported by beautifully plush tannins and an electric backbone of freshness, finishing long and fragrant. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent. Supple, fresh, and vibrant with layers of silky fruits, accents of salty rocks and stones, flowers, spice, and red pit fruits, the wine is sensuous, polished, and energetic on the palate and in the finish. There is a beautiful purity and refinement in the finish that makes your want to take another sip. The wine blends 62.5% Merlot with 37.5% Cabernet Franc, 15.2% Abv. Drink from 2025-2047.-Jeff Leve, Wine Cellar Insider. |
