Lot #667. Duckhorn Merlot Napa Valley 2016

Description: Consists of 12 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 91 WW.
"COMMENTARY: There is a reason why Duckhorn Vineyards is synonymous with Merlot. Aside from placing this grape variety on the map with the winery's first release: the 1978 Three Palms Vineyard Merlot, Duckhorn Vineyards has been consistent with its Napa Valley Merlot. The 2016 vintage is sturdy, well-structured; and firm. TASTING NOTES: This wine is beautiful and well-framed. Its aromas and flavors of lively and bright red fruit, a shading of blackberries, and an accent of oak should match it beautifully with a juicy grilled T-Bone steak." Wilfred Wong, Wine.com, April 11, 2019
Provenance: The Normande Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $375
