A delicious cabernet from Kelly Fleming and a great price for the quality of this wine. Big black fruit on the nose and palate. Bold fruit, full bodied, well integrated tannins. 92-93. This wine is ready to drink now.

This is simply outstanding! I could drink this forever. Give it 2-4 hours of air and then enjoy. see previous notes.

A neighbor brought this over for the NFL playoffs. I've had a number of different vintages of Quintessa and I've always been impressed with the quality of fruit. However, if drinking blind I would never bet that this was Quintessa. Underwhelming for the price point - a reflection of the difficult vintage. Dark red and black fruit - dark cherry, currants, and blackberry. Fairly smooth mid-palate with decent depth (medium body) but not real flavorful and a little tart. Also, fairly rich. Decent finish but not overly long nor deep. Decanted for a couple hours and drank over another three. Improved a little with time. 94% cab, 4% merlot, 1% cab franc, and 1% petit verdot. Drank next to a couple higher-end cabs from Carter and Myriad and this really paled in comparison to those wines.
