Duckhorn Three Palms Vineyard Merlot 2012

HED72113 75cl 14.5%
Since their inaugural vintage in 1978, Duckhorn Vineyards has been proud to craft a vineyard-designated bottling from Three Palms. One of California’s first single-vineyard Merlots, this full-bodied wine reflects Three Palms’ unique terroir and has been a consistent benchmark for New World Merlot. Named for its three iconic palm trees, the warm, up valley vineyard features lean soils that cause the vines to send their roots deep in search of nutrients, producing an intense, age-worthy wine with complex fruit and mineral layers.

The 2012 vintage is a blend of 89% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Cabernet Franc, 2% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot. Vibrant red fruit bursting through on the entry, followed by layers of licorice, wet stone and earth that reveal themselves on the mid-palate. Though the tannins are prominent, adding gravitas to this iconic Merlot, there is a lovely refinement to them that beautifully accentuates the flavors of blueberry, warm spice cake and plum.
