Crossfork Creek Cellars
Cabernet Sauvignon
Yakima Valley, Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
This is probably one of THE best $20 Cabs I've ever had. I first had the 2013, which was above average as is, but THIS, is the definition of QPR. (Second label of Sheridan Vineyards)
The nose is very fragrant, exhibiting notes of red delicious apple skins, cedar, sweet balsamic reduction, sod, and french chocolate truffle. The pallet is extremely rich and viscous, but not in a high alcohol fashion. It is full of luscious, dark cherries, stewed blackberries, clove and nutmeg spices, and vanilla bean extract, finishing in a gripping, very slight jam factor.
I think overall this wine is outstanding, whether that is because I am biased to this style of red, or because this wine truly is impressive. It is smooth, round, and rich in complexities, and very expressive of a preferred growing year in good ol' Columbia Valley!
$19.99

Aug 10th, 2017Awesome! Dark fruit, spicy notes, medium tannins and medium acidity, nice and smooth. Great with steak, a burger; or other bold foods. 2014 is a great year for Washington Cabs.
