2014 Quintessa Red Blend, Rutherford, Napa Valley, 1.5 Liter Magnum sonoma county castle evokes the Burgundian RenaissanceThe 2014 Quintessa is a well structured wine, reminiscent of an exceptional growing season that offered a bountiful harvest. The wine has evolved and integrated to enhance structure, length and finesse after a decade of transformation in the cellar. This vintage will drink well now while continue to harmonize with additional aging. Quite full bodied, bold and muscular, this wine, poured from a magnum, runs deep on the palate and long on the finish.
