Gilles Nicault has created a beautiful testament to its origins in the 2022 Pirouette, a Cabernet Sauvignon-driven blend with 30% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc. Barrel fermentation provides a backbone of supple tannin and age-worthy structure, with lovely cassis, oak spice, and tobacco vying for attention. Full-bodied, it’s built to age another 20+ years.

Quilceda Creek | 2021 CVR
The Quilceda Creek CVR 2021 displays more aromatic layers than the 2020 bottling. The texture is outstanding, as it is silky smooth throughout the drinking experience. Layers of mocha, tar, and anise collide with copious minerals and great tension, considering the warmth of the vintage.
