As you might imagine given the price and the Duckhorn reputation this is a serious wine indeed. A blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 2.5% Cabernet Franc, and 2.5% Petit Verdot, it offers rich, mixed berry flavors with a subtle trace of chocolate and hints of savory oak. The tannins are richly textured, and the long finish will make you want to take another sip of this fine wine.
