It produces just one wine from its 280 acre (113 hectare) estate, a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blend that is consistently met with high acclaim. The estate's founders, Agustin and Valeria Huneeus, have sought to produce one wine that expresses the terroir of the property each vintage. As a result, while always Cabernet Sauvignon-based, Quintessa's final blend is never exactly the same. While Cabernet Sauvignon dominates, there are also plantings of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carmenere on the estate property. The property's hills, lake and river contribute different mesoclimates, and there are several different types of soil. The 26 separate vineyard blocks are all vinified separately, and then the final blend is decided before bottling each vintage. Agustin Huneeus was born and raised in Santiago, Chile, where he grew Concha y Toro into the largest winery in the country, before leaving the country in 1971 due to political unrest. Valeria Huneeus is a viticulturalist and has a PhD in biochemistry. After working for several prestigious wineries in Napa, they found what was to become the Quintessa property in 1989. The land had not been planted to vine before, so the Huneeus' could plant to their liking. Huneeus has an extensive history in the viticulture and oenology industry. In 2010, he purchased The Prisoner and Saldo from Orin Swift Cellars until the brand was sold to Constellation in April 2016. He also owns Faust and Illumination in Napa Valley and has a partnership with Flowers Vineyards \u0026amp; Winery on the Sonoma Coast.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-01T15:23:46-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-18T10:46:38-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","Other_Wine","Producer_Quintesssa Estate","Region_California","RK1702","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":79999,"price_min":79999,"price_max":79999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42789165498506,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2017 | Quintesssa Estate | Rutherford (Half Bottle)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":79999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/28_0c18b4da-b2c6-4aed-84c2-cc5b0726634d.png?v=1676735263"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/28_0c18b4da-b2c6-4aed-84c2-cc5b0726634d.png?v=1676735263","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2017 | Quintesssa Estate | Rutherford (Half Bottle) at CaskCartel.com","id":24252096446602,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.304,"height":263,"width":80,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/28_0c18b4da-b2c6-4aed-84c2-cc5b0726634d.png?v=1676735263"},"aspect_ratio":0.304,"height":263,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/28_0c18b4da-b2c6-4aed-84c2-cc5b0726634d.png?v=1676735263","width":80}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2017 | Quintesssa Estate | Rutherford (Half Bottle)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolid, featuring blackberry and black currant notes, carried by a well-integrated brambly structure, ending with a lively licorice snap accent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Quintesssa Estate\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eWA\u003c\/span\u003e | 95  \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" color=\"#ff2a00\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eJS\u003c\/span\u003e | 95\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage: \u003c\/b\u003e2017\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 375ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bordeaux Blend Red\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e United States, California\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolid, featuring blackberry and black currant notes, carried by a well-integrated brambly structure, ending with a lively licorice snap accent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #222223;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #222223;\"\u003eReviews:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #9f250d;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #9f250d;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e Already bottled, the 2017 Quintessa displays a deep garnet-purple color.
