Chateau Quinault L'Enclos2020

RED WINE

Vinous Media 92-94

The 2020 Quinault L'Enclos contains no Cabernet Sauvignon this year due to mildew. It has an intense bouquet of black cherries, blueberry and crushed iris flower. The oak is neatly enmeshed and feels delineated and tensile. The palate is medium-bodied with fine but firm tannins, and lightly spiced, with white pepper and sage seasoning the black fruit. Quite structured and powerful on the finish, this is a long-term Saint-Emilion that will benefit from several years in the cellar.
