About this wine

This is a wine that knows how to make an entrance without shouting about it. The 2020 Saint-Emilion de Qvintvs from Château Quintus offers that perfect balance of elegance and substance that makes you want to come back for another glass.

You'll find red berries right away, with a hint of earth and fine tannins that feel smooth on your palate. The merlot brings softness and roundness, while the cabernet franc adds structure and a touch of spice. It's a wine that feels complete, neither too heavy nor too light.

Serve this at around 16 to 17 degrees with a good meal. Think duck confit, beef stew, or even a quality burger. It's the kind of wine that works beautifully with hearty dishes from the region. Give it about 15 minutes in the glass before you drink it, and it will reward you with more depth. This is a wine worth keeping in your cellar for the next five to seven years if you can be patient.
