{"product_id":"quilceda-creek-2017-1-5l","title":"2017 Quilceda Creek, Cabernet Sauvignon, Magnum (1.5L)","description":"JD97 \"The flagship 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley is all Cabernet Sauvignon brought up in new barrels (mostly Taransaud and Darnajou). Beautiful crème de cassis, graphite, spice box, and lead pencil notes all flow to a full-bodied, soft, elegant wine that has beautiful tannins, no hard edges, and a seamless texture. It shows the more upfront, charming style of the vintage and is already hard to resist. Nevertheless, it should easily evolve for 20+ years.\" JD Dec 2020\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRP96 \"Revisiting the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon at a year on, the wine remains bold and structured and has had a bit more time to come together and harmonize. The wine remains generous on the nose with sweetness of fruit and a glossy character, which offers chocolaty undertones in the glass with aromas of lavender and black cherry that are still persistent on the nose. Full-bodied, the tannins are beginning to round with an additional year in bottle. At the same time, the palate offers layers of dusty blackberry essence and juicy plums with elegant baking spices from the 100% new French oak aging before ending with a rich, juicy and intense finish. The original score and drink date still stand.\" AM for TWA Apr 2021\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA powerhouse of Cabernet, Quilceda Creek continues to set the bar in Washington for amazingly complex, round, rich and juicy wines of utmost elegance and precision. The Galitzine Vineyard Cabernet took for me for a ride as one of this year's best Cabernets from Washington State. With longtime employee John Ware leaving for Rocky Pond Winery, the young and talented Alex Stewart has stepped up to the plate. Stewart is crafting amazingly beautiful, wonderfully structured wines that are incredibly complex and worthy of carrying the Quliceda Creek name into the future.
