The 2013 Le Dragon de Quintus, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, has a light, cranberry and strawberry-scented bouquet that feels a little one-dimensional compared to recent vintages. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, a keen line of acidity and moderate depth. Approachable now with agreeable tension on the finish, perhaps I was a little mean towards this deuxième vin out of barrel. It is rather short but it should give some drinking pleasure over the next 2-3 years.
