Duckhorn Vineyards 2005 Merlot, Napa Valley
Not just an entrepreneur but a true visionary, Dan Duckhorn was the first Napa winemaker to see the potential for Merlot as not just something to blend with Cabernet but as the primary grape in a great Napa Valley wine. He founded his winery on that premise and the rest is history. No other Merlot from California has achieved the success, the accolades or the following that Duckhorn enjoys. The wines are always highly allocated and snapped up by legions of loving admirers. We were able to acquire...

SORRY this wine is SOLD OUT Winery Review This approachable wine is layered with bright acidity and forward fruit balanced by well-integrated tannins. The aroma is distinct with raspberry, plum, black pepper, tobacco and black olive. The flavors are abundant with blackberry, bittersweet chocolate, cedar, toasty oak, and a caramel finish.

93 Points Robert Parker: "The 2005 Petite Syrah Library Vineyard is impeccable. Beautiful blueberry and blackberry fruit infused with charcoal and licorice aromas jump from the glass of this opaque purple-colored effort. Full-bodied and stunningly rich with sweet tannin and good acidity, it should evolve easily for two decades."

Switchback Ridge-Petite Sirah-"Peterson Family Vineyard" Napa Valley-2005
“Off the charts richness,” says R.P. How can a wine be this full of flavor? Espresso, blackberry syrup, camphor, incense, violet perfume, allspice and mocha. One of California’s great “extreme” red wines. This family vineyard on Silverado Trail, north of St. Helena makes amazing red wines.

FAMOUS NAME . Sure, Duckhorn does own vineyards, but we feel it’s misleading to call this product, made from purchased fruit, “Duckhorn Vineyards” wine. It may have been fermented there, but it wasn’t grown there. The standard of quality for bulk Napa Cabernet Sauvignon fruit doesn’t warrant this kind of price, no matter how carefully “selected,” or how cleverly tweaked with designer yeast and expensive oak. The critics take the middle road: 89 points from Stephen Tanzer and 86 points from James...
