Quintessa Vineyard

Huneeus Vintners is a renowned wine estate located in the heart of Rutherford, California. With a sprawling 280-acre site, the estate boasts a diverse range of geology, biodiversity, exposures, and microclimates, making it an ideal location for producing exceptional wines. The Huneeus family's commitment to organic and Biodynamic farming practices ensures that each of the 26 vineyard blocks, planted with varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Carménère, is cultivated with utmost care to preserve and enhance the unique characteristics of the land.

Driven by their passion for capturing the natural grandeur of the estate, the Huneeus family crafts their wines with meticulous attention to detail. The grapes, harvested in the early morning, undergo a gravity-fed process and are vinified in oak, stainless steel, or concrete tanks. After fermentation and maceration, the wine from each plot is aged separately in French oak for up to two years. The final Quintessa blend, a harmonious combination of the estate's varietals, is then bottled and aged for an additional year before release. Quintessa's commitment to excellence is evident in every sip, making it a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts seeking a truly exceptional experience.
