This 2017 N&N Quarry drank very well, one of the best wines we’ve had from the challenging 2017 vintage. The red and black Rutherford fruit was spot-on with appropriate secondary spice flavors. Great structure. Paired nicely with grilled beef tenderloin. Excited for other vintages of this N&N single vineyard cab.

A favorite of the 2017 vintage from the many Nickel and Nickel single vineyard Cabernets. A deep purple garnet hue. Wafts of crushed stone, leather, and sage romance the nose. Opens rapidly with complexity and balance with blackberry, plum, and a distinct dusty dry earthy minerality throughout. A gigantic Cabernet that will stand the test of time. 94 points.

Somewhat one-note. Consistent with some of the other 2017s I’ve tasted from N&N. Not a bad effort at all, but I personally wouldn’t seek it out.
