Apr 24th, 2016Quintessa has created some amazing wines under their Faust label. Their numbered bottles of "the Lure" and "the Pact" have stood out rivaling their flagship wines. Bold and full-bodied Cabernet dominates the forward fruit. But it's not overpowering; the palate transitions into a complex lingering finish. Really enjoyed. Find it and try. Cheers!!
