Quintessa 2008
Vintage:
2008
Acclaim:
Quintessa is the best expression of the winery's vineyards in the heart of the renowned Rutherford appellation of Napa Valley. In broad terms, Quintessa is a red meritage wine created using biodynamic, organic farming and eco-sensitive winemaking techniques. A perennially successful wine, it is consistently met with critical acclaim year after year.
Tasting Notes:
The 2008 vintage possesses tremendous density, concentration, and ample fine tannins. It announces itself dramatically with a full lush entry, developing into a broad, rich, and enrobing wine that coats the mouth with concentrated dark fruit flavors balanced by a well-integrated sweetness from the oak.
Blend:
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Carmenere, and Cabernet Franc
Cellaring:
Full and dramatic early on, but will age gracefully beyond 2013.
