Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2019 750 ML

Deep, dark brick red to blood plum. A seamless blend of crème de cassis, hazelnut, cocoa, blackberry preserves, a charry meat toastiness, dark fruits and blackberry pie along with suggestions of dark licorice, stewed rhubarb, strawberry, spice and vanillin. Rich and satisfying with chocolate brownie, yogurt, molasses, brown sugar and rhubarb notes presented in perfect balance with higher-toned fruit emphasis.

Producer Information
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.
