  • 1997 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 94 Points

    USA, Washington

    Leather, wound, very warm nose, nice acidity to balance out. From the appearance this had to be the Quilceda as this was the only mature wine

    Fresh, red berries, bubblegum, really funky, I was sure that this was new world, but I was wrong... not my type of wine

    Round, no signs of age at all, good but also nothing spectacular really, disappointed when I saw the bottle

  • 2005 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 94 Points

    USA, Washington, Columbia Valley

    Green Curry, Some olives but clearly not the Cayuse type, nice minerals, some very red cherries that are harvested early, good balance. Really nice wine but was completely overpowered by the Harlan and Bryant 1997
