Duckhorn Vineyards Decoy California Zinfandel

The Decoy California Zinfandel is an expressive and multi-layered wine from the renowned Duckhorn portfolio, which has stood for the highest quality and craftsmanship for over 30 years. It reflects the fascination and power of this typical Californian grape variety and combines intensity with elegance.

The cuvée consists of 86% Zinfandel, 12% Petite Sirah and 2% Carignane. On the nose, the wine develops seductive aromas of boysenberry, black cherry, mocha and cinnamon. On the palate, it is generous and opulent, with juicy notes of stewed berries and ripe plums carried by rich, supple tannins. Undertones of oak spice add depth and complexity, while the finish is powerful and persistent.

The wine gets its structure and balance from ageing for 11 months in French oak, using 40% new and 60% neutral barrels. This maturation harmoniously rounds off the fruity aromas without masking the fresh, lively nature of the wine.

The Decoy Zinfandel is a wine full of energy and expressiveness that is ideal with grilled meat, hearty pasta dishes or spicy cheese. A Californian with a strong character that reflects the full diversity of this traditional grape variety.
