April 6, 2024 - Another excellent bottle. Improves with decant, as the wine initially was a little tight and showed less fruit than in the past, but with a couple hours in the decanters it opened up. Great long finish.

March 30, 2024 - Dark crimson in color. 15.2% ABV. Stunning nose of blue fruits, molten licorice, Whitman Sampler Box and flowers. Tremendous structure and concentration. Impeccable balance. Dark fruits in spades. Blueberry, creme de cassis, vanilla bean and tobacco on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish with prominent silky tannins. Blockbuster Cabernet Sauvignon that should cruise to 25 years of age.

March 15, 2024 - Dark fruit profile with telltale Cab Sav notes asserting themselves on the nose. Full-bodied palate showing good freshness and a long dark cherry-infused finish. This was an excellent bottle which would have merited another point or two had it shown a bit more complexity. In the zone now.

January 14, 2024 - Absolutely gorgeous wine. Fruit, tannins, acidity all in the right place. Still has a long life ahead, unfortunately the last bottle for me

4/1/2010 (link) ***** points(Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley) Dark and brooding on a nose that is quite closed up at present with blackberries and black cherry dominating initially followed by light floral aromas, earth, and kisses of chocolate. On the palate, boom! A compact ball of black fruit wound up incredibly tightly at present. Shows great intensity while still being deft on its feet. Big and bold but with tremendous layering and refinement. The finish lingers for as long as you want to keep counting. 15.2% alcohol.
