Duckhorn Merlot 2021

Duckhorn is the king of Merlot in Napa. Their Merlot has been the #1 wine on Wine Spectators Top 100. 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. Inspired by the great wines of Bordeaux, the first vintage of Duckhorn Merlot was 1978 and the wine has grown into a juggernaut it is today. The finest quality matched with huge demand and desirability. The 2021 Duckhorn Merlot has received a huge 97pts by Suckling. Now the kicker the wine’s regular price is $69.99. For a short time while supplies last we have it down to $47.99. When are you able to get true big red wine Napa greatness at under $50 a bottle. More and more customers have been asking me for quality Napa Merlot. The quality to price ratio cannot be beat and Merlot’s superb approachableness matched with wines ability to age covers all the bases.
