Nickel and Nickel Winery is all about single varietal, single vineyard wines and the Quicksilver Vineyard is a beautiful Rutherford Cabernet from the folks at Far Niente. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.

95 Points James Suckling: "The Nickel & Nickel Quicksilver Rutherford cabernet sauvignon has an array of ripe dark-plum aromas, laced with baking spices and subtle, meaty complexity. The palate carves a very succulent, lithe and flavorsome impression with an abundant, ripe dark-plum flavor. Drink or hold."

94+ Points Robert Parker: "Made of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the deep garnet-purple colored 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Quicksilver Vineyard opens with cassis, black cherries, kirsch and bay leaves with lavender and baking spices nuances. The palate is medium to full-bodied, elegant, fresh and vibrant with loads of spring in its step, finishing long."

The Quicksilver Vineyard lies on the western Rutherford bench, along the famous Bella Oaks Lane. The soils are predominantly well drained loams that produce vines of moderate size. These older vines were planted to the California sprawl system, with wider spacing and a divided canopy, giving great exposure to the fruit. Minimal irrigation is needed to obtain maximum fruit potential..
