Red wine
Quilceda Creek, Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
RRP £177
From a hot vintage with cool harvest conditions, this has an incredibly rich, plush, spicy nose, with black pepper and black cherry. It’s ripe, and the palate has wonderful brisk acid and soft, soft tannins with dark berry fruit. This has been in the glass for a good hour now, and it’s really opened up. It’s beautifully balanced, with excellent juice to a serious, powerful finish. Excellent.
