quilceda's single-vineyard bordeaux-style blend is 86% cabernet sauvignon, 8% cabernet franc and 6% merlot. this has fine grained tannins—not soft, but polished, ripe, and rich. tasted prior to its official release, the wine was still pulling together all of the complex barrel-influenced flavors; it tasted delicious, with notes of bourbon-soaked cherries, along with veins of espresso, cacao, dusty baking spice, and a liquorous finish.
