CHÂTEAU QUINTUS Grand Cru Saint Emilion 2019
The 2019 Quintus, matured in 40% new oak, presents a fragrant, quite floral nose of black cherries, violet, incense and light orange pith scents; the oak is nicely integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fresh entry and blood-orange-infused black fruit. The Cabernet Franc imparts real spiciness toward a finish that lingers in the mouth. This will need a few years just to lose some of its youthful fieriness, but it should age well in bottle.
GEVREY CHAMBERTIN 1er Cru Craipillot Domaine J. Confuron Cotetidot 2018
(from a .50 ha parcel). Very ripe aromas of plum and cassis are trimmed in hints of spice and earth. The impressively intense medium weight flavors terminate in a chocolate-suffused and mildly warm finish. Wines from Craipillot are typically relatively elegant but it would be fair to describe this as a burly example.
