Very powerful nose of flowers spice and berries. On the palate, red and dark fruits, tobacco, spice, some cedar. A little bit of meat/jerky. Great complexity. Long finish. Just got my adult braces this week and the orthodontist said red wine is going to stain the brackets. Cheers to purple brackets- wines like this make it worth it!

This wine is great. It seems like the more wine I drink the more I end up chasing those great moments where I can be entertained doing nothing but savoring the flavors of a great glasss while tuning out everything around me. With this wine the chase ended, and great enjoyment was had. Good value for the price. Drinking great right now, so my case won’t last long.

I agree with other cellartracker.com reviewers......this is a very good wine. Deep/dark with a lot going on. Should last, but there is no reason to let this one sit. Drinking very well right now.

A really excellent wine, that has an excellent well rounded and smooth complexity of flavors. However, at this price point, I was hoping for more. There are other, less expensive wines that you can stack up against this. I don't want to take away from the wine itself, but I just felt it is priced to high for what is in the bottle.

Brief tasting during a walk around of California Wineries, Montreal.
Blend of 66% Cab, 29% Merlot, 2.5% Cab Franc and Petit Verdot, 100% new French oak 18 months. Very impressive showing from Duckhorn here with refined ripe blackberries, dark cherries along with crushed black pepper, crushed stones, herbs and chocolate. The finish is elegant and long grippy tannins.
