The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon from Quilceda Creek is sourced from mainly Champoux Vineyard along with Klipsun and Taptiel Vineyards. This opens up to aromas of roasted plums, blueberry, freshly turned earth, dried savory herbs, licorice and some hints of bittersweet chocolate. On the palate this is soft and round, with the tannins completely integrated into the seamless, velvety texture which carries on through the very end. Although this is very pleasing to drink today it seems to be evolving much faster than anticipated, but should still have a few good years left. (Best 2015-2020) - August, 2015 (JD)
