2020 Quilceda Creek “Palengat” Cabernet Sauvignon Clone 685
Mach One Vineyard
Horse Heaven Hills
Aromatic Decadence
The 2020 Quilceda Creek Palengat Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Clone 685 Cabernet Sauvignon from Mach One Vineyard. This vintage of "Palengat" is a classic expression of this clone and site. Dark fruits shine through, as well as sandalwood and lavender. Subtle leather, minerality and spices unfold as the wine opens up. There is an elegance and succulence to this polished, velvety wine that glides across the palate.
“Clone 685 has an aromatic component reminiscent of great Cabernet Franc. Its high-toned aromatics and purple fruit characteristics always remind me of that varietal, which is part of the reason we chose to bottle it separately.”
— Paul Golitzin
