Quilceda Creek

Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

9.4

Delicious dark fruits and fragrant nose, opening up as time passed after uncorking. The tannins have all but melted away and the wine is fully mature and drinking beautifully. A little surprised that the mid palate was not as heavy as expected but it could be the impact of the 19 years of aging. Brought this one to the restaurant from home. — 14 days ago

Young wine. Opened and let breathe for about 2 hours before dinner. Paired with Greek food. Dark and brooding. Still a little tight but enjoyable — 4 months ago

A first time wine for me. Nice oak treatment with vanilla and smoke. Overall good tannic structure and balance. Too herbaceous for my tastes… — 7 months ago

I gave this a lot of air and it’s still not where I was hoping it would be. Sure it’s not a CA Cab but still. It’s light on the palate, not a great finish and a more tannic, drying overall than I prefer. — 22 days ago

So true @Shay A 20 flipping years.

@Shay A , respect your experience as you make have tasted more than than I ever will. In general, my experience is that most U.S wines don’t have longevity like many old-world wines. But my comment does not apply to all. Frankly, after all these years in bottle, if it hasn’t come around by now, will it ever? And if it does, was it worth the wait?

Norman Gennaro

At 2600 you are no slouch @Ron R not sure this will come around but if it did it was worth the wait :)

Face off of the 2010 Cabernets with FirstLight Steak tenderloin. Dancing Bear comes out the winner with a touch more fruit and depth to it over the Quilceda Creek. Both wines decanted 90 mins. Smooth yet complex. — 7 months ago

This rocked. PnP. Lovely dark red color. Refined, rustic, and Bordeaux like nose with cedar and aged cherries. Same on the palate with an awesome texture. Medium depth and medium plus finish. High quality all the way! — 7 months ago
