KATHERINE GOLDSCHMIDT
2015 CRAZY CREEK
CABERNET SAUVIGNON
ALEXANDER VALLEY
We’re not the only ones Crazy about Katherine Goldschmidts Crazy Creek Vineyard Cabernet… The wine just earned an incredible 94 Point score in the January issue of Tasting Panel Magazine and at $19.99/btl, there’s simply nothing like it. Saturating your palate in an abundance of chocolate covered cherries, crushed blackberries, roasted coffee and black currants, and just like the previous two vintages, this beauty out-performs most Cabernets double its price… Emerging from a single vineyard which for years went to Simi for their Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon ($75)… At just $19.99/btl, Katherine Goldschmidt’s Crazy Creek Cabernet Sauvignon perfectly expresses just how inspiring Cabernet Sauvignon can be from Alexander Valley.
Ramping everything up a notch or two in terms of sheer power and concentration, the new vintage of Crazy Creek releases a dense core and remarkable palate presence, unlike anything I’ve tasted at this price. 2015 was a textbook vintage in Alexander Valley, resulting in low yields which provided high levels of intensity and vividly sensuous, opulent flavors. I’m not surprised that this value driven Cabernet continues to be my top-selling Cabernet…

From The Tasting Panel, “Named for Goldschmidt’s middle daughter, the wine’s grapes hail from Crazy Creek, a vineyard known to produce some iconic wines. Big, bright, blue fruit notes on the nose are meaty, with a chocolate espresso twist and dry tannins showing on the palate. It’s a little masterpiece with a dark chocolate finish that way over delivers on price-to-quality.” 94 Points

If you’ve tasted any California Cabs recently from the 2012 vintage, you might have noticed that many have developed into something extra special…. Drawing you in with a fully developed and hedonistic bouquet of majestic blackberries, black plum, sweet vanilla and savory undertones.
