Tasting Notes

Duckhorn Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 opens with dark red berries, blackberry, cassis, fresh tobacco, crushed stones, cardamom, dark chocolate, and ripe fruit liqueur notes. The palate is full-bodied and polished, showing fig jam, boysenberry pie, fennel, graphite, spiced cocoa, firm dusty tannins, vibrant fruit, balanced minerality, and a long focused finish.

Food Paring

Pair this Napa Valley Cabernet with beef, lamb, poultry, game, grilled tri-tip, or mature hard cheeses to complement its dark fruit, dusty tannins, and polished oak spice. It is also a great match for hearty roasts, venison, and celebratory dinners when you want a structured Cabernet with classic Napa richness and a long finish.

Professional Reviews

"Bright and refined with aromas of blackberries, cassis, fresh tobacco, crushed stones and dark chocolate. The palate is full-bodied and polished with fine tannins and vibrant fruit. Defined and balanced with a touch of minerality."

92 Wine Enthusiast

"Bright ruby in the glass. Aromatics of ripe fruits and liqueur continue into flavors of fennel, graphite, and spiced cocoa. Polished tannins are well balanced into a lingering finish."

92 Wilfred Wong of Wine.com

"The 2022 Duckhorn Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterful expression of winemaking precision and vineyard selection. Under the guidance of winemaker Renée Ary, this wine showcases fruit from premier sites across St.?Helena, Rutherford, Oakville, and Calistoga. Aged for 16 months in French oak barrels (50% new), it reveals layers of crushed blackberries, cassis, and warm oak spice. With a TA of 0.58 g/100 ml and a pH of 3.79, the wine maintains vibrancy and structure. Elegant yet powerful, it pairs beautifully with grilled tri-tip steaks."
