Founded by legendary vintners Dan and Margaret Duckhorn in 1976, Duckhorn Vineyards is an iconic Napa Valley winery. Located in the southern end of Napa Valley, Cork Tree is our coolest estate vineyard, providing abundant hangtime for the grapes. Planted on a sloping, west-facing hillside, Cork Tree yields a beautifully structured and sophisticated Cabernet Sauvignon, with alluring aromatics, supple tannins and generous layers of blackberry, black cherry and fig.

Wine Profile

Production Notes
Varietal Composition: 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot
Winemaker Notes
This luxurious Cabernet Sauvignon commands attention with alluring aromas of blackberry jam, blueberry crumble and toasted hazelnuts. On the palate it is concentrated and rich, with a core of energetic acidity that accentuates the juicy huckleberry and black currant flavors, with hints of sage and spice emerging on the long, resonant finish.
Production
Despite an unusually dry winter and warm spring, budbreak was delayed due to light rain in March. The overall lack of rainfall led to light clusters and small berries, which resulted in reduced yields and great concentration. Harvest began on August 5th with Semillon, and early heat generated a fast and furious first few weeks of picking. A much-needed mid-September cool-down allowed for sugars to realign with flavor development. Moderate temperatures continued throughout the rest of the season, providing additional hangtime for the grapes. Our last red grapes were harvested before the rains in late October, resulting in beautiful wines that are dense, pure and polished.
