(Quintessa Red) #4; COLOR-dark; NOSE-a little funky; little garbage; interesting subtle Black Raspberry; little Oak Monster; TASTE-really dark chocolate; really firm, solid tannins; good richness & explosiveness; really well made; great polish; pure fruit; I like this wine; nice balance; reminds me more of Classic Bordeaux than a CA cult wine; nice tanat-like balance on the finish; I like the red fruit on the mid-palate transitioning to black fruit mixed w/ dark chocolate components on the finish; interesting wine; WE-95; GV-92+

Still had a few years to it, at or near peak. Decanted for an hour. Good, smooth tannins and nice finish

4th of July BBQ. Wine drank very well with Ribeye and Lamb chops. This could have gone a bit longer in cellar, but it looks like it is coming into its prime drinking window and might actually be there already. Was the WOD against a couple CA Pinot (2005 Goldeneye is one that I remember), a Sauvignon Blanc, and a grocery store cabernet. Not a whole lot of competition but this one went fast and I was glad I brought it and poured myself a good sized glass.

Eh... it's... fine. Structure is still there but fruit seems to be fading a bit, so it's a little rough on the finish.
