As a property in the Saint-Émilion Grand Cru appellation, Château Quinault L'Enclos produced an elegant, medium-bodied 1999 vintage that showcased the more moderate character of that growing season in Bordeaux. The 1999 Quinault L'Enclos would have relied primarily on Merlot, which likely formed the core of the wine, with supporting Cabernet Franc and possibly a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon to provide structure and aromatic complexity. While perhaps lacking the sheer power and concentration of the estate's top vintages, the 1999 Quinault L'Enclos would have offered Bordeaux enthusiasts a refined, nuanced interpretation of the property's distinctive Right Bank style.
