Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 2009

The 2006 Quinault l'Enclos exhibits the elegant style that Raynaud has achieved in every vintage over the last decade. Sweet black raspberry and currant fruit along with hints of spring flowers and smoky oak are followed by a round, gentle, restrained wine revealing outstanding purity, medium body, and a fine finish. While it is not as prodigious as the 2005, it is a strong effort for the vintage. There are also 5,000 bottles of a kosher wine which Libourne's local rabbi produces and serves as administrator.

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, June 2009

Good bright ruby-red. Complex aromas of dark raspberry, musky espresso, smoke, mocha and tobacco. Broad, supple and sweet, with a pliant texture and lovely aromatic lift to the flavors of redcurrant, iron, tobacco and flowers. An elegantly styled wine with good stuffing, ripe acidity and no rough edges. This is balanced to give early pleasure but has the spine to age for the next 10 or 12 years. 90 points

Blueberry and raspberry, with hints of mineral. Medium- to full-bodied, with a solid core of fruit and ripe tannins, but falls a tad short. Better than from barrel. Best from 2012 through 2016. 5,830 cases made. -JS

Rich, bold maroon core with a lighter rim. Aromas of sweet tea and dried herbs over dark ripe cherry. On the palate the wine is fairly well balanced with nice fruit and a medium body. The fruit fades somewhat on the finish. Tasted twice with consistent notes.
