Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Napa Valley 2017 750 ML

Deep garnet in color. Baking spice aromas of cinnamon and clove are intertwined with dark stone fruits, blackberry pie, vanilla, white pepper and notes of oak and rose. A full bodied palate presents layers of dark black cherry, coffee, blackberry, dark currant and notes of milky chocolate. Beautifully rounded with an unctuous velvety mouth-feel. This refined wine is a sensational expression of what a Napa Valley Cabernet represents with a long, smooth finish and fine grained tannins.\n \n Producer Information\n Quilt Wines is a Napa Valley wine producer based in Rutherford, producing a small range of labels from fruit sourced across the Napa Valley AVA. It primarily focuses on Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay but also produces a red blend. The name Quilt is a reference to Napa's "rolling patchwork of vineyards". Quilt was established by fifth generation Napa winemaker Joseph (Joe) Wagner, who initially worked alongside his father at Caymus Vineyards before establishing Belle Glos in the early 2000s. Although based in Rutherford, Wagner's wines, including Quilt, Belle Glos and his Copper Cane range, are sold through the Quilt & Co. tasting room established in central Napa town. Four main labels are produced: the Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon; the Quilt Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon; The Fabric of the Land red blend (including Merlot, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel and Petit Verdot); and the Quilt Chardonnay. The red wines are made from fruit sourced across the Napa Valley AVA, predominantly on the valley floor although up to a third of the wine can include fruit from higher elevations in the area. The Chardonnay is primarily Carneros-grown.
