Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Vineyard: Quilceda Creek Vintners
Region: Columbia Valley, Washington
The 2006 Quilceda Creek Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (97% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot) is an intense and floral wine that is packed with violets, blackberry, cassis, plum and chocolate. The wine has sublime purity, texture and balance. Approachable now, it should reach maturity around 2015 and age for 25 or more years. While we are particularly proud of the last four vintages of our flagship wine, the 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the best wines our estate has ever produced, rivaling 2002, 2003 and 2005 in quality. Due to the strict selection, the 2006 case production represents a reduction of 19.8% from the 2005 vintage.
