WINE DESCRIPTION
Duckhorn Patzimaro Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a captivating expression of Napa Valley’s renowned St. Helena appellation, crafted from the iconic Patzimaro Vineyard at the base of Spring Mountain. Paying homage to the Hurtado family, integral to Duckhorn Vineyards’ winemaking legacy, this wine benefits from the vineyard’s ideal combination of warm days and cool nights, which allow for full fruit ripening while preserving acidity. The 79% Cabernet Sauvignon is artfully blended with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, then aged for 18 months in 100% French oak, 85% of which is new. The result is a complex, structured wine that showcases the vineyard's unique terroir and the meticulous craftsmanship of Duckhorn Vineyards.
