(Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon) Slightly cloudy, nearly opaque red violet color; appealing, Bordeaux-like, maturing, tart currant, cedar nose; ripe red currant, cedar, plum palate; needs 2-plus years yet; medium-plus finish
(Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley) A stunningly beautiful, refined nose with blackberry, blueberry, earth, mineral, wood smoke, and light herbs. The taste is other worldly. Perfectly refined. Immaculated detailed and textured. Hangs on the palate for minutes. Quite simply the best wine I have tasted. 96% Cabernet; 3% Merlot; 1% Cab Franc. Champoux, Tapteil, and Klipsun vineyards. 14.4% alcohol. 3,400 cases produced. Sampled at 62 degrees.
