Quintessa, Quintessa Red, Rutherford, 2014, 75cl Format:1 x 75cl This is precise and pureA blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc, and 1% each Carmenre and Petit Verdot, the medium to full bodied 2014 Proprietary Red Wine is drinking very well at the moment, with suave mint and dusty earth notes accenting ripe cherries. It's lighter and brighter in character than either the 2015 or 2017, coming across as particularly fine and elegant despite being matured in 80% new French oak. Drink date: 2023 2035 Joe Czerwinski,
