True to this vintage's generosity, Château Quinault l'Enclos 2020 offers a pastry-like, gourmet bouquet, full of ripe fruit, spicy notes and light tobacco. The balsamic aromas, linked to the ageing in large vessels, will soften with time. On the palate, once again, the maturity of the vintage boasts a seductive, soft and voluminous attack. The wine fully opens up in the middle of the mouth, then gives way to more serious tannins on the finish, a sign of good concentration.

The 2020 Château Quinault L'Enclos, which saw two thirds of the blend brought up in foudre, is another beautiful, seamless wine from this estate that offers both richness and elegance. Black cherries, smoked tobacco, chocolate, and a touch of scorched earth all flow to a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, finesse-driven Saint-Emilion that already offers pleasure. It will evolve for two decades.

The 2020 Quinault L'Enclos is a gorgeous, deeply pitched Saint-Emilion. Rose petal, mint, dried herbs and sweet red berry fruit all grace this wonderfully layered, nuanced Saint-Emilion. Pure and nuanced, with terrific energy, Quinault has a ton to offer. In 2020, the Cabernets (15% each Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc) are super-expressive. There is just a bit of youthful austerity that needs time to soften.

This vineyard in the heart of the city of Libourne is now showing great quality. Ripe black fruits dominate the tannins, giving a wine of great freshness. It is succulent, with generous fruitiness while keeping an good structure. Drink from 2026.

Shows an overt roasted vanilla note, along with plum sauce and melted red licorice flavors. Reveals a soft, warm feel through the tar- and tobacco leaf-tinged finish. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2029.
