        • Wilfred Wong: The 2018 Duckhorn Vineyards Merlot is packed, elevated, and substantive on the palate.This wine shows up with power in its aromas and flavors of black fruit, licorice, and oak.

        Producer Information

        Duckhorn Vineyards has established itself over a number of decades as one of Napa Valley's most prestigious wineries. Unlike most Napa wineries, it is most famous for its Merlot, which founders Dan and Margaret Duckhorn saw as more than just a blending variety. Duckhorn makes a wide range of wines, from varietal and blended wines focusing on Merlot to wines made from other classic California varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc. The estate was founded near St Helena in 1976. The first vintage, in 1978, consisted of 800 cases of Cabernet Sauvignon and 800 of Merlot. The Duckhorns came to appreciate Merlot for its approachability, smooth texture, and youthful drinkability, and today it forms the basis of the winery's flagship wines. In 2015, Duckhorn acquired the Three Palms vineyard – a site considered to be one of the best for Merlot in California. Duckhorn had purchased fruit from this vineyard since 1978 and, between 2011 and 2015, had been granted exclusive access to its fruit. Altogether, Duckhorn makes wines from more than 400 hectares (1000 acres) of estate vineyards, as well as bringing in fruit from independent growers. This includes sites in Howell Mountain, Yountville, Anderson Valley and the Russian River Valley.
