The 11th Annual Duckhorn Vineyards Derby Party & Discussion Release

Celebrate the run for the roses at one of Wine Country’s most beloved traditions

Saturday, May 2, 2026 | 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM
The Duckhorn Collection at Paraduxx
7257 Silverado Trail | Napa, CA 94558

This year, we’re bringing the festivities to a new setting at our sister property, The Duckhorn Collection at Paraduxx, where the legacy continues in a fresh new way.

Settle into the day with Southern-inspired bites in partnership with La Saison and our Culinary Director Dominic Orsini, along our signature wines poured throughout our lounge, beneath the old oak tree, and beside the vines. From Duckhorn Vineyards to Goldeneye and beyond, experience the spirit of The Duckhorn Collection as our home becomes yours for an afternoon of food, wine, and celebration.

Tradition and excellence unite as we debut the 16th vintage of The Discussion Red Blend—a wine that embodies the ongoing dialogue of craftsmanship and connection in winemaking. Be among the first to savor the new 2022 vintage of this Bordeaux-inspired blend while reveling in the excitement of the 152nd Kentucky Derby!

No Derby celebration would be complete without our Best Dressed Competition, inviting guests to showcase their finest race-day style—from big hats and fascinators to sports coats and bow ties.
