Located in the Calistoga subregion, the Three Palms Vineyard is a legendary site named for its three iconic palm trees. Duckhorn Vineyards, founded in 1976 by Dan and Margaret Duckhorn, was one of the first 40 wineries in Napa Valley and a pioneer in producing luxury Merlot. Since their inaugural 1978 harvest from this vineyard, the estate has focused on a philosophy of quality and excellence, utilizing the site's lean, rocky soils to produce intense, age worthy wines with profound mineral layers. Today, winemaking is led by Renée Ary, who continues the legacy of mastering this world-renowned estate program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWine Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2020 Three Palms Merlot is an elegant and profoundly complex red wine. It opens with alluring aromas of fresh cranberry, huckleberry, and raspberry, complemented by delicate notes of crushed rose petals and graham crackers. On the palate, it reveals mesmerizing layers of black fig and cocoa powder that mingle with lush berry flavors. Sophisticated notes of minerality emerge on the long, resonant finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage is a blend of 98% Merlot and 2% Malbec. It was aged for 18 months in 100% French oak, with 75% being new barrels.
