Decoy, Sonoma County (California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Apr 8, 2014

By Rich Cook

A solid Cabernet Sauvignon at a nice price.  It’s quite fruit forward, showing plum, blackberry and black cherry with notes of fall spice and faint dried herbs.  It’s got the structure you’d expect from Duckhorn, and a long well integrated finish.  I’m thinking an Angus burger smothered in blue cheese butter.  Contains 10% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.
