98 points Decanter: "What is immediately surprising is just how seamless this young barrel sample of Quintessa 2022 Cabernet is, effusing a plush, soft, and silky fruit profile with layers of creamy dark berry fruits, nuanced by fragrant sagebrush and sweet toasty cedar wood. What an effort! One of the most satisfying wines from this challenging vintage. Crafted by winemaker Rebekah Wineburg with Quintessa's estate Cabernet grapes that are farmed according to biodynamic and organic standards. (JC)" (02/2024)
97 Points James Suckling: "So sweet and purely fruity on the nose, then layered, sophisticated, detailed and complex on the palate. Full-bodied and fully tannic, yet the fine-sand tannins are beautifully integrated, with ripe red and black cherries, raspberries, blueberries and cocoa. Elegant, intricate, charming and quite fresh. Made from 93% cabernet sauvignon, 4% cabernet franc and 1% each of carmenere, petit verdot and merlot. Drinkable now, but best from 2030."
The Quintessa vineyard and winery are situated on 280 beautiful and diverse acres in the heart of Rutherford. Hidden from the road, the property is features five distinct microclimates, a 20-acre lake, rolling hills crowned by the highest elevation point in the Rutherford appellation. Nestled among oak and madrone trees, Quintessa offers intimate vineyard experiences that focus on this unique estate. The winery is built into an east-facing hillside with a gravity flow design and naturally cooled caves.
