The second wine of Château Quintus, the name `Le Dragon de Quintus` originates from the dragon statue that towers above the magical terroir of Saint-Émilion, perched high upon the promontory, where the estate is located. The 2015 vintage is produced from a blend of 76% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Franc and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon. Fresh on the nose, with hints of cherry and raspberry, carrying through to a soft, smooth palate with rich tannins.

The 2015 Le Dragon de Quintus has an autumnal bouquet with brambly red fruit, horse chestnut and smoky scents. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins. This is savory in style with an almost Pessac-like, graphite-infused finish. I would drink this sooner rather than later. Neal Martin3rd June 2025

Tasted blind. Mid crimson. Gentle, curranty nose. Neat with some freshness. Appetising and unadorned. 21st-century style. No compelling flavours yet but it’s correct. A bit drying on the end. Seemed on the verge of oxidation when I went back to it though. (JR)Jancis Robinson23rd January 2019
