2011 Quilceda Creek "Galitzine Vineyard" Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Galitzine Vineyard comes all from the Golitzin‰۪s Red Mountain vineyard and is almost all Cabernet Sauvignon. One of the richest and most concentrated wines in the vintage, it offer fabulous creme de cassis, black raspberry, graphite, toast and licorice aromas and flavors to go with a full-bodied, seamless and beautifully balanced profile on the palate. As expected, it doesn‰۪t have the sheer wealth of material that‰۪s present in the prior vintages, yet everything is perfectly proportioned, it has excellent mid-palate depth and notable, sweet tannin. It benefits from a decant and will have upwards of two decades of longevity.
