Duckhorn Napa Valley Merlot 2017 is a Napa Valley Merlot from Duckhorn Vineyards, founded in 1976 in St. Helena, California. The 2017 vintage blends 80% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2.5% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot and 0.5% Malbec from estate and grower vineyards across the appellation. It was aged for 15 months in 100% French oak, with 40% new barrels and 60% neutral. The nose opens with cherry, raspberry, cocoa, baked plum and pie crust, with star anise and iodine beneath. The palate brings dark cherry, plum, chocolate ganache and stewed strawberry, framed by resolved tannins, sage and clove. The finish is medium-long and savory, with dark chocolate and soft spice.
