2015 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley from this lot has the following scores - Jeb Dunnuck 99 points, Decanter 97 points. 2014 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2014 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley from Robert Parker - with a score of 100 points. Lighter and lifted, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon shows a sweet frame of fruit with elegant French oak and baking spice scents with vanilla, nutmeg and cardamom that sways with an impressive aromatic array of cedar and cigar box, resinous purple flowers, juicy plum and chocolate ganache in the glass. Full-bodied, the wine is balanced and seamless, offering precision and focus across the mid-palate with fine-grained tannins that continue to sway with excellence before delivering a long, drawn-out finish that's simply stunning. This will be able to age for more than a decade in the cellar.
