Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 05

Highly collectible Washington Cabernet. Of the three previous vintages, the wines received 100 (2002), 100 (100), and 99 (2004) points respectively from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. The 2005 has been referred to as a better wine than the 04. Hmmm.

Shipping in late March/April.

WINE SPECTATOR RATING 94 POINTS
Dense, deep and powerful, a many-layered red that piles on its rich currant, plum, black cherry and peppery spice flavors, finishing with touches of cedar and mint. A glorious, cellar-worthy Cabernet with plenty of superrefined tannins. Best from 2004 through 2015. 2,500 cases made. (HS)
