Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (750 ml)

Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (750 ml)

Tasting Notes For Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

As this slowly begins to unwind in the glass it releases gorgeous aromas of blackberries, dark plums and Creme de cassis that are accented by graphite, violets, herbs, sweet spices and mocha which all take shape beautifully. The palate is full-bodied, concentrated and incredibly fresh, with a round polished texture and a dense layered core of ripe dark fruits that expands seamlessly into the lavish finish. While the 2018 is already stunning to drink in its youth, it should ultimately go on to have a brilliant future ahead and evolve gracefully for at least two decades.

Critic Ratings

Wine Spectator Review - Issue Apr 30, 2022 - Rated 95:
A dynamic red, impeccably structured yet rich and harmonious, with expressive blackberry and black tea flavors laced with a hint of tobacco, which builds tension toward big but polished tannins. Drink now through 2033. 5,300 cases made. — TF

Wine Enthusiast Review - Published 9/1/2021 - Rated 98:
Aromas of black raspberry, dried herb, cherry, incense, cranberry and spice explode from the glass. The flavors undulate across the palate, creamy in feel, with layer upon layer of fruit and barrel flavors. It is completely seamless, with outrageous balance—the quintessential hammer in a velvet glove. The finish carries off into the distance. Best after 2032. SEAN P. SULLIVAN
