Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
As a fifth generation Napa Valley winemaker, Joe’s roots run deep in these rich soils. At 19 he started working alongside his father at Caymus Vineyards. Then, in 2001, created Belle Glos, with a focus on vineyard-designated Pinot Noirs from California’s best coastal regions.
His love for Napa wine and the singular fusion of natural elements, history, and spirit found in the Napa Valley are the foundation for Quilt.
Classic yet complex, romantic but not ostentatious, Quilt is Joe Wagner’s tribute to the character of Napa Valley and its rolling patchwork of vineyards. Each wine in the collection is crafted from vineyards hand selected by Joe, a native of Napa Valley and fifth generation winemaker.
With superbly ripe fruit from a patchwork of vineyards all over the Napa Valley, Joe Wagner makes a statement with his new fruit-forward and supple Quilt 2018 Cabernet. It’s a dark beauty with intense notes and flavours of black currant, berries and bittersweet chocolate. On the palate, it’s a meaty and velvety wine with an edge that makes you want another sip. Turn this new classic from Joe Wagner into your new steak dinner wine.
