Quintessa Red 2018 is an exclusive and deeply refined red wine from Rutherford in Napa Valley, featuring dark fruit, mineral vibrancy, and an elegant, modern expression. The vintage appears harmonious, concentrated, and precise, with an impressive balance between power, freshness, and finesse, giving the wine both great immediate appeal and significant aging potential.

The aroma offers cassis, black cherries, and ripe raspberries, complemented by sage, thyme, dark chocolate, cedar, licorice, lavender, and a subtle hint of crushed stones. The taste is full-bodied and silky smooth, with dense fruit, fine polished tannins, and a lively freshness, where dark berries, spicy herbs, mineral nuances, and an elegant oak influence come together in a long, nuanced, and persistent finish.

The wine pairs excellently with beef, veal, lamb, duck, game, as well as grilled and braised dishes – an obvious choice for grand dinners and for those seeking a Napa Valley wine with depth, elegance, and great development potential.

97 /100

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Quintessa (Cabernet Sauvignon) sashays out with crème de cassis, blackberry preserves and redcurrant jelly scents, plus wafts of dark chocolate, anise and lavender with a touch of tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, elegantly styled and stunningly energetic, it has a fine-grained texture and long, fragrant finish. Drink Date: 2023 - 2040 - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
