Januik 2022 Quintessence Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
93 pts. Sean Sullivan
Our beloved Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
"This Cabernet Sauvignon is rich and deeply aromatic, with notes of ripe blueberry, cassis, dark chocolate, espresso, vanilla, and baking spice. Concentrated and textured on the palate, it delivers flavors of dark cherry, blackberry, dusty earth, and warm vanilla spice. Ripe, round tannins provide structure and depth, carrying the wine through a mouthfilling and lasting finish." -Mike Januik, Winemaker
