Château Quintus
Originally known as Château Tertre Daugay, Château Quintus was purchased in 2011 by Domaine Clarence Dillon (of Châteaux Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion) and shortly thereafter transformed. They named it Quintus, which was a common name in ancient Roman times for a fifth child. In terms of the Dillon family, it is their fifth Grand Vin that they produce after both the red and white wines of Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion. In 2013, they also purchased Château l'Arrosée, another property located with the Saint-Émilion appellation and their vineyards are now being including into Quintus’. Today, the estate totals 28 hectares which are planted to Merlot (67%) with the remainder being Cabernet Franc (33%). In addition to making Château Quintus, they also have a second wine called Le Dragon de Quintus. Both wines are made by Haut-Brion and La Mission's winemaker, the inimitable Jean-Philippe Delmas.
