Duckhorn Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic expression of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Duckhorn Vineyards has crafted exceptional Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon since 1978. The wine displays aromas of ripe black plum and cherry, mocha, cedar, and sweet baking spices. On the palate, the wine is rich and supple, with a layered complexity of fruit and spice flavors, supported by silky tannins and a long, elegant finish. The wine can be enjoyed upon release, but will also reward those who cellar it for several years.
Duckhorn Vineyards is located in the heart of Napa Valley, in the St. Helena appellation. The winery was founded in 1976 by Dan and Margaret Duckhorn, who had a vision of creating wines that reflected the unique terroir of Napa Valley. The winery's first vintage was in 1978, and it quickly became known for its exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon. Duckhorn Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a food-friendly wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes. It is particularly well-suited to grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and hearty stews. It is also a great match for cheeses, especially aged cheddar and Gruyère. For Korean cuisine, consider pairing this Cabernet Sauvignon with Bulgogi (Korean BBQ beef) or Galbi (Korean BBQ short ribs). The richness of the meat and the sweet and savory marinade will complement the wine's fruit and spice notes. It would also be an excellent choice with Bibimbap, especially if it contains beef or other grilled meats. I invite you to experience the elegance and depth of this exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon.
