The grapes are harvested separately at peak ripeness. This process involves rigorous selection to ensure only the finest grapes are selected. These grapes are transported directly to the winery for sorting. The Duckhorn Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon undergoes a thorough aging process, with the grape varieties and parcels fermenting and maturing separately before being blended into a harmonious whole. Aging for 16 months in French oak barrels, half new and half neutral, contributes to the wine's richness and complexity.
The Duckhorn Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon offers a rich and complex tasting experience. Aromas of juicy blueberries, warming cardamom, dark chocolate, subtle violets, and toasted toast blend harmoniously.

The finish is long and elegant, making this Cabernet Sauvignon a true sensory delight.
