Pairing Red meats, game, aged cheeses
Chateau Quintus 2022 di Saint Emilon is a red wine that shows an elegant, measured profile typical of regional production. In the glass it displays a lively ruby colour; on the nose there are ripe red fruits, light spicy notes and a subtle earthy background. On the palate it combines balanced structure with noticeable but not aggressive tannins, supported by freshness that keeps the wine smooth and enjoyable.

It pairs well with grilled red meat, braised dishes and mushroom-based recipes, as well as with not-too-strong aged cheeses. Before serving, it is advisable to open the bottle some time in advance or give it a short decanting to soften the aromatic profile; serving temperature around 16–18 °C. A wide glass enhances the aromas and helps the wine's complexity to express itself. It can be enjoyed now for its drinkability or left to rest a few years for further bottle development.

Terroir and vineyards
Situata nella Gironda, nella regione Nouvelle-Aquitaine, a est di Bordeaux (Right Bank), l'area combina suoli argillo-calcarei e collinari che favoriscono la coltivazione di Merlot e Cabernet Franc e una forte frammentazione dei cru.
