Quintessa Nappa Valley
The Quintessa Napa Valley 2018 is a true representation of the pristine terroir of Napa Valley, USA. This vintage showcases a deep ruby red hue, with a slight purple hue that hints at its youth. On the nose, aromas of ripe dark berries, cassis, and black cherries mingle with subtle notes of vanilla and cedar. The palate is bold and full-bodied, with a perfect balance of tannins and acidity. Flavors of blackberry, plum, and dark chocolate are complemented by hints of spice and tobacco. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a pleasant aftertaste of dark fruits and oak. This wine is a true testament to the craftsmanship of Quintessa, who has expertly blended Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot to create a truly exceptional and complex wine. Enjoy now or cellar for years to come.

Opus One Cabernet Blend
Opus One is the coming together of two of the world's supreme wine figures, Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi. Opus One began its life in 1979 when Château Mouton Rothschild winemaker Lucien Sionneau and Robert Mondavi's son, Timothy made the partnership's first vintage. Their goal was to create a wine of unparalleled quality that reflected the traditions of both houses. The wine is French in style, but Californian in substance, Opus One is produced with the utmost attention to detail. The 2006 Opus One is a traditional Bordeaux style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. The wine shows saturated black fruit concentration with flecks of purple in the glass. The nose is one of dark chocolate, blackberry, smallgoods and rose petal. In the mouth, flavours of cassis and coffee with robust plum and cherry are only a small taste of how great this wine will become with careful cellaring.</p>
