Quilceda Creek
Galitzine Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Red Mountain, Columbia Valley, Oregon/Washington, USA
It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Dark purple in color with a wide purplish rim.
Beautiful nose of black fruits with cedar, vanilla, leather, spices, earth, chocolates, tobacco and peppercorn.
Full-bodied with medium acidity.
Dry and fruit forward on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, blackberries, cedar, vanilla, spices, chocolates, tobacco, light earth and herbs.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon from Red Mountain in Washington State. Elegant and fruity. Smooth and soft.
This 6 year old is showing nice complexity at this point, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Showing good potential to become a 95+ point wine.
This Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is good right out of the bottle, and better after 90 minutes of airtime.
Spicy, entertaining, and the high alcohol is well integrated by now.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with a nice piece of steak.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged for 20 months in all new French oak barrels.
14.8% alcohol by volume.
93 points.
$150.
