2006 Quilceda Creek - Wine Advocate # 185 October 2009: The flagship 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon comes predominantly from the famous Champoux Vineyard in which the winery is a partner
The full-bodied palate has a rock-solid structure of firm yet beautifully ripe tannins and just enough freshness to support the tightly wound black fruits
it’s layered and refined on the nose
it's built along lines similar to the demonstrative 2019
and a distinctive personality that is elegant while at the same time powerful and substantial
Liger Belair Nuits St. Georges Aux Cras 2017 1.5L Sine Qua Non 2006 Quilceda Creek - Wine"A restrained, cool and pure nose features notes of herbal tea, spice, earth, red currant and a whiff of the sauvage. The focused, detailed and punchy middle weight flavors possess a fleshy mid palate yet the stunningly long finish is youthfully austere, compact and linear. As such this delicious but tightly wound effort will also need at least some bottle age. In a word, excellent." Burghound, BH93, tasted 1 2020
