QUINTESSA  MAGNUM AND PRIVATE WINERY TOUR FOR 4 GUESTS                                       

1-Magnum 

You and your guests will tour the magnificient Quintessa Estate!

In 1989, Valeria and I found the property that would become Quintessa, a remarkable estate in the heart of the renowned Rutherford appellation of Napa Valley. With 280 acres, it was the last great undeveloped property in Napa Valley and had all the characteristics of a great wine estate: rolling hills, many different microclimates and a vast diversity of soil types. Now with nearly fifteen years of growth, the vines have lost their youthful exuberance and have developed into a balanced vineyard that needs little manipulation to produce low yields and concentrated flavors.

Quintessa Proprietary Red Blend 2007 looks to be one of Quintessa’s stronger efforts. Dark ruby/purple, with sweet black currant, cherry, and loamy soil notes intermixed with some subtle spice box and background oak, this wine is rich and medium to full-bodied, with round, silky tannins, and an attractive set of aromatics.
