winemaker's notes:

"Due to a very concentrated vintage, the 2004 Quintessa takes a departure into the realm of power, all the while maintaining the finesse and elegance that have been the signature of the wine from the Quintessa Estate since its inception. An opaque jet black robe leads to a bold attack, transitioning into a weighty, layered mid-palette of infinite complexity. The finish is supple and round with good length and exquisitely forged tannins."
-Aaron Pott, Winemaker

critical acclaim:

"This dazzling effort from Quintessa recalls the first-rate bottlings of a few vintages back and re-establishes the winery at the top of the list for varietal excellence. From the very outset, the wine establishes a strong base of deep, cassis and sweet plum fruit and adds in layers of enriching, wholly complementary oak. It comes with exceptional balance and is buttressed by an ample dose of youthful tannin, and everything about this handsomely executed bottling points to its certain acquisition of increased complexity and polish over a decade and more."

Connoisseurs' Guide

"Dense garnet hue with a reddish rim. Complex bouquet of raspberry and cassis with wisps of cedar and menthol. Juicy flavors of wild cherry and raspberry along with abundant cedar and oak impressions. Silky tannins and vibrant acidity propel the raspberry-soaked close."
