Displaying Howell Mountain’s signature concentration and complexity, QUINTVS is a rigorous barrel selection of the five distinct soil types found at ADAMVS. From the powdery gray volcanic ash to the iron-rich red clay Howell Mountain is most noted for, QUINTVS artfully represents the soil’s expression in the wine.

2015 QUINTVS 

In every vintage, QUINTVS embodies the geologic diversity of the ADAMVS Estate. Deeply aromatic with notes of bay laurel and sage brush, the wine expresses soil driven characteristics of mineral and wet stone that reflect a deep sense of terroir. On the palate there is  great breadth, richness, and a concentration of fine-grained tannin. Flavors of pure cacao and Chelan cherry emerge throughout the long, silky finish. Drink now with a firm decant or lay down for ten to fifteen years.
