Community Tasting Note

• cab blends wrote: 85 points

  April 21, 2018 - This was a wine of two totally different worlds. I have gone off Quilceda unfortunately over the past few years. The stoniness of the palate is too austere for me normally and not enjoyable.
  
  I decanted half for 4 hours and this was beautiful and the WOTN together with Matriarch. It changed dramatically. The stoniness was gone and the wine was smooth and integrated. Some light gunpowder on the nose.
