Perfect 98 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is another extraordinary release from one of Washington State’s most celebrated Cabernet producers. Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is sourced 90% from the legendary Champoux Vineyard in Horse Heaven Hills and 10% from Mach One Vineyard, then aged 22 months in 100% new French oak. Deep and concentrated yet remarkably polished, it delivers layers of cassis, blackberry and dark cherry with graphite, sandalwood, cocoa, spice and crushed-stone minerality, framed by silky tannins and a long, powerful finish. The acclaim is exceptional: 100 points from Owen Bargreen, 99 points from The Wine Palate and International Wine Report, 98 points from both Jeb Dunnuck and James Suckling, and 97 points from Vinous. A benchmark Washington Cabernet built to develop beautifully for decades.
