After a period in the doldrums, I think Duckhorn is re-emerging. On day 3, this is still in a great place. Textured, balanced and complex. Plush tannins emerge along with bright acidity. This will take medium-term cellaring.

Blackberry, raspberry, currant, dark chocolate, vanilla and oak. Good structure and moderate tannins.

Smooth and layers of fruit. Very elegant. Great with a picnic at the Wedding Bowl in La Jolla where we got married on this day, 23 years ago.

Very solid choice from the restaurant’s half bottle list. I wish more restaurants maintained half bottles. Perfect for when traveling and eating solo at the bar.

A good showing. Notes of coffee and jam on the nose and palate. Good tannins, but acidity tilts the ensemble in the wrong direction. Still enjoyable. Don’t bother to cellar this.

Not too shab. Smooth, very Merlot from Napa Valley. Definitely needs a few years to lay down.
