CRITIC REVIEWS
James Suckling
Ripe damson-plum, candied-orange and spice aromas pour from the glass of this ripe and generous St.-Emilion. Impressive tannin structure behind all the richness, the bitter-chocolate and expresso notes at the warm and long finish underlining the ripe fruit very neatly. Still so much life and so many years ahead of it. Drink or hold. Château Quintus vertical tasting. SP.

Hubert de Boüards 30th vintage. 50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Franc from 60-year-old vines. Fine, racy nose of violet notes. Velvety texture. Ample tannins but precise, fine and long. Again, real precision in this wine. Structured, seductive and long ageing.
