Decoy by Duckhorn CABERNET Sauvignon California 2023 750ml

Winemaker's Notes

Decoy by Duckhorn's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon is an alluring expression of California's exceptional vintage. Aromas of black cherry, blackberry, mocha, savory blueberry, and sweet baking spices draw you in from the first pour. On the palate, silky tannins and a supple, rounded texture frame voluptuous dark berry flavors, with notions of barrel spice adding nuance and complexity to the long, lush finish.

Vintage Notes

The 2023 California growing season began with abundant winter rains, revitalizing soils after years of drought. Cool spring temperatures delayed ripening by two to four weeks. Harvest started September 7th, intensifying in late September with alternating heat waves and cooling trends. October warmth helped achieve optimal ripeness, with harvest wrapping November 9th — resulting in red wines of exceptional depth, texture, and rich color.
