The 2019 'Galitzine' is an absolute knockout. This instantly opens to seductive aromas of ripe blackcurrants and dark plums that are wound by lead pencil shavings, violets, gravel, dried tobacco and mocha nuances. The palate is absolutely stunning, full-bodied and seamless, with an incredible deep concentrated inner-core that pumps out layers of perfectly ripe dark and blue fruit flavors along with hints of mocha and graphite which continue to resonate all the way through the long expressive finish where it continues to display a wonderful sense of purity and freshness. This is an absolute gem from Quilceda Creek that delivers on every level, a truly remarkable Cabernet that is excellent now, but will certainly age gracefully. 2024-2044
