Quintessa

Quintessa, an Domaine iconic winery in California's Napa Valley, embodies the perfect alliance between exceptional terroir and the passion of a family devoted to winemaking.

Founded by the Huneeus family, Quintessa is a tribute to the natural beauty of the landscape and the constant pursuit of excellence in the production of world-class wines.

The story goes back to the 1980s, when the Huneeus family acquired an estate of over 150 hectares in the Rutherford region, in the heart of Napa Valley. The family's vision was to create a unique Domaine, where the diversity of soils, the orientation of the hills and the ideal climate would combine to produce wines of exceptional quality. Domaine has been meticulously landscaped, with attention to every detail, with the aim of capturing the very essence of Napa Valley in every bottle.

Description Quintessa 2018 Magnum.

Quintessa and one of Napa Valley's most prestigious Domaines located east of the Rutherford region. For Valeria and Augustin Huneeus, the Chilean couple who founded Domaine in 1990, the aim is to produce exceptional wines. Adorned with an incredible garnet-red color, the nose of this wine is dominated by intense notes of blackcurrant and black cherry, complemented by hints of sage and thyme. In the background, tobacco and dark chocolate add depth. The palate is dense and supple, with silky tannins. The structure is perfectly balanced between freshness and power. The dazzling finish reveals intense fruity aromas.
