Stock options windfall - when to pay estimated taxes?

A good problem to have is that we got a mid-7 figure windfall when stock options vested and exercised on June 18 - a few days after the June 15th estimated tax payment.  So are estimated taxes due on Sept 15?  And is that 75% of capital gain taxes due?   

 

Meanwhile, I could keep that in a high-interest money market earning 5.30% and then pay in September?
