East of Washington’s majestic Cascade Mountains, the Columbia Valley has earned renown as the source for some of North America’s most dynamic and exciting Cabernet Sauvignons. With idyllic sundrenched summer days, cold nights and very little rainfall, it is a land of extremes, where Cabernet Sauvignon clusters ripen perfectly on the vines, yielding energetic wines, with soaring aromas and tantalizing flavors of plum, black cherry and wild strawberry.

From the storied vineyards of this remarkable region, our Greenwing Cabernet Sauvignon takes flight. Honoring both the rich history of the Duckhorn Portfolio, and the winegrowing traditions of Washington, it is a wine for those seeking new places, new flavors and new experiences. Discover Greenwing, and discover Another State of Cabernet.

Wine Profile

Production Notes
Varietal Composition: 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Malbec, 2% Syrah
Winemaker Notes
This beautifully structured wine draws you in with alluring aromas of Bing cherry, rooibos tea, loamy earth, and graham cracker, with notions of cinnamon, clove, and wild herbs. On the palate, shapely, fine-grained tannins and energetic acidity add poise and verve to the red currant, raspberry and wild strawberry flavors as they build to a long, dramatic finish.
Production
The 2021 vintage will be famous for its warm growing season and its drought conditions, which combined to produce historically low yields. While budbreak was two weeks ahead of normal thanks to a warm, dry spring, blustery weather during flowering caused some shatter leading to very low yields A late-June heatwave led to incredible phenolic development, while a second heatwave during veraison spurred the vines towards early ripening. Harvest started early, with ideal weather throughout September and October, and concluded two weeks ahead of schedule without any pressure from frost or rain. Due to the low yields and midsummer heat, our 2021 wines offer remarkable richness and depth, with supple textures and lush flowing flavors.
