| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\nThe 2016 Quintessa is a generous wine, with complex and elegant layers than envelop you from the first sip. Welcoming with aromas of cassis, blackberry, red currant and undertones of sage, thyme, crushed rocks, and rose petals, the 2016 Quintessa continues to expand in the glass as notes of exotic citrus, clove and fresh tobacco mingle with bright fruit. Full and rich, the wine is held together with fine-grained tannins that interweave beautifully with flavors of dark chocolate, crushed rocks, black cherry, and blueberries. The wine is distinct for its energy and depth of flavor and will leave a lasting impression with its velvety texture and intoxicating perfume.\r\nJames Suckling 98 Points \r\nRobert Parker 97 Points\u00a0\r\nAbout Quintessa Winery\r\nHIDDEN In The Heart Of Rutherford, Quintessa is a 280-acre site that reflects a diversity of geology, biodiversity, exposures and microclimates. Inspired by this distinct property, founders Agustin and Valeria Huneeus believed that it was destined to become one of the world\u2019s great wine estates. Today, a total of 160 acres are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carm\u00e9n\u00e8re on 26 vineyard blocks. Each block is farmed\u2014organically and biodynamically\u2014harvested, and vinified individually to preserve and enhance the nuances of the land.\u00a0 Inspired by the land\u2019s natural grandeur, the Huneeus family dedicated themselves to capturing the beauty and harmony of this land in the form of a great wine. |
