2014

昆图斯帝龙

昆图斯帝龙得名于守护酒庄的巨龙雕像。这尊巨龙伫立在高地之上,俯瞰圣埃美隆。它与昆图斯源自相同的多元风土,以鲜明的果味、清新感与细腻度,呈现出另一种风土诠释。这款酒在年轻时便已展现出极佳的适饮度,更直接地传达出昆图斯的风土特质。

Tasting notes

The very expressive bouquet shows attractive hints of cherry and raspberry.
The wine is ethereal on the palate, with beautiful freshness that highlights
the delicious fruitiness. The long aftertaste confirms the overall
charm and attractiveness.

The Climate

2014 was marked by an extraordinary Indian summer that saved the vintage. Fine spring weather was conducive to a good start to the growing season. However, challenging summer conditions seriously slowed down ripening. Fortunately, the month of September was absolutely beautiful, with dry, extremely sunny weather accompanied by highs of close to 30°C. This superb weather, with cool night-time temperatures, enabled the grapes to ripen beautifully, and they were able to be brought into the vat house having reached a perfect level of ripeness.
