Quintessa 2011 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot sourced from a 280-acre biodynamic estate in Rutherford, California. The wine presents a nose characterised by red fruit notes, including plum and cherry. On the palate, it reveals a medium body with a layered structure and a nuanced finish featuring hints of black pepper and clove. Winemaker Charles Thomas aims to express the terroir, utilising organic farming practices.

Vinous
The 2011 Quintessa offers good brightness, but is also a bit light in depth, as many wines are in this vintage. I would prefer to drink it sooner rather than later, before the fruit fully drops out. Hints of rose petal, mint and red berry fruit linger.
