Sweet Jesus and Mary Chain! I find it ironic that Quilceda Creek's cheapest wine is so freaking good! Big tannins but smooth as silk. Bold blackberry, cigar box, cherry and spice notes on initial palette that keep going and going and going (seriously, a fews mins later I am still smacking my lips). Drink this now until 2021. Yum!!! — a day ago

Interesting varietal, done in a very delicate way. Melon and cantaloupe flavors subtly mix on the initial pallet. The soft, thin body is deceiving because the tannic structure evolves noticeably after the swallow. Not my favorite wine (I favor the bold), but certainly interesting (more complex than the average pinot gris). — 3 months ago

Still as bright and fruity as when it was released. Raspberry, strawberry and a hint of melon and pepper on the finish. Yum! — 4 months ago

2010 is bright/acidic cherry flavor, rose petals, red plumb, and medium body which make for a strong initial flourish in the mouth that doesn't linger terribly long. Cool year, go figure. Very good, but not anything to get too excited about. — 3 days ago

Interesting prune and leather notes, blackberry and white pepper notes, pleasant tannins, still a little heady. Yum! — a month ago

Red mtn. all the way (i.e. huge fruit and a hint of banana), with softer tannins (thanks to aging perhaps) and a sweet lingering finish. Yum! — 4 months ago

Damn, such lovely structure and fruit profiles. This 2011 could have easily have gone a few more years. Yum! — 4 months ago

I was worried this 2008 was getting long in the tooth. Not even close! Silky tannins, succulent bing cherries, hints of smoked meat and leather, graced by a dusting of white pepper. Yum! — 24 days ago

2014 vintage is thick, mouth saturating and unctuous, intense raspberry and peppered meat, followed by subtle (or somewhat smothered) vanilla notes. Fantastic tannic grip as well. This is a bad ass Grenache, and sadly, we are not making more (we are blending it into our Squirrel Tooth Alice now). — a month ago

Rich, ripe fruit (cherry and plum), traces of smoke and an oaky finish speak volumes (i.e. It's a Cali wine yo). — 4 months ago
