100 Point "Cellar Selection" Napa Icon

December 16, 2024

If you are like us and enjoy big-time Cabs, then the 2021 Quintessa Napa Red is right up your alley.

And, if you don't always want to open a full 750ml bottle but still want a glass or two of something exceptional, then we have you covered with Quintessa's 100-point red available in both 750ml and 375ml.

Either way, you cannot go wrong with the Quintessa Proprietary Red, among California's top-tier Cabernet blends from a classic, dream vintage. 

"Cellar Selection • An exquisite wine, relying primarily on Cabernet Sauvignon from a single estate. Aromas of lavender, dried herbs and grapefruit pith combine with flavors of firm fruits and cocoa on a structure of abundant, powder-fine tannin and a mouthwatering finish. This wine is refined, detailed and delicious, with as much elegance as energy."  Wine Enthusiast

We love Quintessa's hallmark profile - so much earth and spice, along with notes of mocha, wet earth, and walnuts.  We also love this wine's graceful progression on the palate.  It's hard not to reach for a second glass.  

 

There's so much going on in this bottle!  
 

From an outstanding 2021 Napa Valley vintage, you can enjoy Quintessa now and over the next 15 years. 
 

Enjoy!

“An especially beautiful growing season.”

Winemaker Notes

"The 2021 unfolds with Quintessa’s signature balance of complex fruit, precise structure, and vital freshness amplified by an especially beautiful growing season. Floral notes— violet and lilac—lift an intensely aromatic bouquet of cassis and black cherry accented with anise, bay laurel, and forest floor. On the palate, firm but fine-grained tannins back dark berry and savory herb flavors interwoven with graphite and iron. Generous texture carries the complex layers to a fine, chalky finish. [91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, 3% Carménère, 1% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot]"
