2004 CHÂTEAU QUINAULT L'ENCLOS Saint Emilion

2004 CHÂTEAU QUINAULT L'ENCLOS Saint Emilion

Grapes: Merlot  Cabernet Sauvignon  Cabernet Franc  Origin: France, Bordeaux
Lea & Sandeman review
Alain Raynaud bought this property seven years ago, and has brought it up from a wine which was sold in lightweight bottles in supermarkets to where it is today. The vineyard is gravel, and is entirely surrounded by the town of Libourne (hence ‘l’Enclos). I did not taste this this year, but Robert Parker clearly liked it and the wine has fans from earlier vintages, so it should sell well at this price.

Other reviews and comments
An elegant, pretty Quinault, the 2004 displays a dense ruby/purple color along with a big, rich nose of licorice, black raspberries, cherries, and spice. This blend of 71% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec possesses an excellent texture, beautiful elegance and complexity, and no hard edges. A seamlessly made, supple-textured, evolved, forward effort, it can be drunk now or cellared for 12-15 years. This is a very strong effort in a challenging vintage.   91/100
