Quilceda Creek Winery is a family-owned estate in Washington State, internationally recognized as a benchmark for world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. Founded in 1978 by Alex and Jeannette Golitzin, the winery was built on a clear vision: to craft exceptional wine with a singular focus on Cabernet Sauvignon.

Alex’s inspiration came from his uncle, the legendary winemaker André Tchelistcheff, whose influence laid the foundation for Quilceda Creek’s deep commitment to quality. Over the decades, Quilceda Creek has grown from humble beginnings in a garage into one of America’s most celebrated wineries, all while maintaining a dedication to small-scale production and hands-on winemaking. The grapes are sourced exclusively from carefully selected vineyards such as Champoux, Mach One, and Galitzine, and the winemaking process emphasizes minimal intervention to preserve the purity and character of the fruit. The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon renowned for its depth, structure, and longevity—consistently earning the highest accolades and international acclaim.

Today, under the leadership of Paul Golitzin, the winery continues to uphold its founding philosophy of excellence, staying true to its roots while crafting wines of remarkable elegance and distinction.
