Jane Anson
Intense depth and character but with freshness, floral character, clear salinity, sappy tannins that are not entirely resolved, but there is good spice and impressive lift. Includes Merlot from the north facing vineyards, and this is sculpted and precise, juicy finish. Director Mariette Veyssiere. 91 points
Antonio Galloni
The 2023 Le Dragon de Quintus is a gorgeous, vibrant Saint-Émilion. Crushed flowers, red plum, spice, new leather and cedar lend notable energy and brightness. The 2023 is a fine Dragon with plenty of the breadth that is typical here, but in a slightly more restrained style than in past vintages. 90-92 points
William Kelley
The 2023 Dragon de Quintus is a real success this year, revealing aromas of cassis, mulberries, dark wild berries and flowers. Moderately weighted and elegant, the wine on the palate is fleshy, round and seamless with a structuring, long finish. This is a blend of 71.6% Merlot and 28.4% Cabernet Franc. 90-92 points
