Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 1500 mL 2016

Tasting Notes

Deep, dark ruby red. A complex and bold assemblage of dark currant, chocolate hazelnut cream, coffee beans, dark and dense fruits, vanilla, red plum, baking spices and wild berry, along with hints of strawberry, wild field herbs, tobacco and roasted meats. Bold and intense, with blackberry cobbler, crème de cassis, toasted hazelnut, chocolate, toffee and strawberry judiciously balanced with dark and wild berry fruits, licorice, cardamom seeds and baked rhubarb pie. A full-bodied wine with layers of complexity, concentrated black fruit and excellent balance. The wine’s breadth and structure is complemented by a supple, velvety mouthfeel, with the wine coating the mouth with satisfying tannins. The finish is long and satisfying. 15.4% alc.

Third Party Reviews

The 2016 Quilt Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a rich experience on the palate. This wine shows up in force with powerful aromas, black fruit, and oak flavors. Serve it with a thick slice of rare prime rib. Score 91, Wilfred Wong, Wine.com, Dec 2020
