A classic expression of Napa Valley Cabernet, this vintage of Duckhorn Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon does not disappoint. The bouquet first greets you with nuances of blackberry, huckleberry and black currants. On the palate the bright, juicy flavor shows off luxurious cassis and dark berry flavors with notes of fig, cardamom, clove and black pepper. The firm core of this wine is supported by dusty tannins that frame all the flavors contained within this wine and leads you right into a well-structured finish.
