DeLille Cellars' Grand Ciel Cabernet 2005 stands as a testament to the potential of Washington’s Columbia Valley to produce Bordeaux-style wines with depth, elegance, and remarkable aging potential. The 2005 vintage is a beautiful example of how well-crafted Cabernet can evolve, revealing layers of complexity and refinement over time.

This wine opens with aromas of black currant, blackberry, and ripe plum, mingled with hints of tobacco, cedar, and earthy spice. On the palate, it’s full-bodied yet balanced, with plush, velvety tannins that lend a smooth texture, while the dark fruit flavors continue to unfold, adding richness and depth. Subtle oak influence provides a gentle toastiness, and the finish is long and elegant, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, dried herbs, and a touch of graphite.

The Grand Ciel 2005 is a fantastic match for roasted meats, grilled steaks, or a selection of aged cheeses. While it’s ready to enjoy now, it still has years of aging potential ahead, continuing to evolve and develop even more complexity in the bottle. A wine of great distinction and structure, Grand Ciel 2005 is an exceptional example of what Washington’s finest vineyards can produce.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 95
"The 2005 Grand Ciel is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from a new 18 acre estate vineyard in the Red Mountain AVA planted in 2001 adjacent to the renowned Ciel du Cheval vineyard. Purple-colored, it offers a superb aromatic array of cedar, mineral, scorched earth, black cherry, and blackberry. Layered, intense, and long, this opulent wine should be approaching its peak by 2015 and drink well through 2030."

Wine Spectator

WS 92
"Ripe and juicy, this is silky in texture, with ripe, generous blueberry and currant fruit at the core, nicely shaded with hints of black olive and wet earth. The finish lingers enticingly and almost delicately against barely grippy tannins. Best from 2010 through 2017."
