This was my first bottle of any Quilceda Creek. I was eager in trying this. I was not disappointed. What a fabulous wine. Very smooth and very silky. My definition of a perfect wine. I think it was still to young but even with that, still fantastic. I bet it would be a 100 point tasting in about 5 to 8 years. Highly recommend this wine and considering how much lafite is going for, what a bargain at $230 (wine commune). This is a must if you like lafites or dominus.

Fantastic wine. Perfect balance of tanin and smoothness. I let it breath for about 1 hour. My first sip was awesome. Hightly recommend this. Well worth the $150 I paid for.

Very nice wine. Perfect age. A little bit bitter, maybe I should have let it stand longer. I waited about one hour after decanting. At times it was almost flawless. At times is made my tounge go ouch. Definetly a great wine but maybe should be left open several hours before drinking. Perfect nose. Perfect rust color when pouring. Very little sediment. Great wine!!
