Katie Kelly Bell of Forbes Asks, ‘Is Quilceda Creek The Best, Most Hedonistic Cabernet Sauvignon In America?’
January 2021

"Dense purple hue with gorgeous cassis and blue fruits as well as dried spice, flowers, camphor, and graphite-driven aromas and flavors. This deep, rich, concentrated, flawlessly balanced beauty has ultra-fine tannins, a seamless, elegant mouthfeel, and a great, great finish."
Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com

"On the nose, it takes on beautiful red florals, dark currants, huckleberry cordial and Turkish coffee with shades of creosote and sandalwood. The palate is opulent, polished and beautifully textured, delivering seamless length and amazing persistence. Cassis, espresso bean, sagebrush and Black Forest cake flavors all come together wonderfully on the palate."
Owen Bargreen, Vinous

"Layers of velvety, dark red fruit that waft from the glass. Full-bodied and firmly structured. Concludes with elegance and persistence on the delightful, velvety finish."
Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate
