Quinault L'Enclos
Chateau Quinault L’Enclos is a beautiful property but surreally located next to Libourne football stadium. It was rescued from developers in 1997 by Alain Raynaud. His no expense spared attitude bought this Saint Emilion estate back up to scratch. The wine is a modern style, with supple fruit and a fresh finish.

Decanter (94)
The shape of this wine is really beginning to come into focus. It has great balance with precision and elegance. Pristine blue fruits and floral touches linger through the palate. There's a higher Cabernet content than usual here, as the replantings have come on line. Picking began on 10 September, making it among the earliest estates in St-Emilion. This early-ripening terroir also helped to avoid too many issues with mildew, because flowering was complete before it arrived. Consequently, the estate enjoyed a 40hl/ha yield. One to watch. 50% new oak.Inc. VAT£204.64
