Napa Valley Merlot
Duckhorn · Napa Valley, United States
About This Wine
Duckhorn Vineyards is historically credited with elevating the status of Merlot in North America, proving the grape could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Napa Valley's best Cabernets. This full-bodied United States red perfectly captures that pioneering spirit. Featuring refreshing high acidity and a substantial 14.5% ABV, it offers a lush, deeply textured palate with a sturdy backbone. This iconic and versatile Merlot is a wonderful dinner companion, classically pairing with dishes like roasted beef, succulent lamb, and tender veal.
