Let's taste some Decoy Wines

The first Decoy Red Blend was made at Duckhorn Vineyards in 1985. This exceptional wine quickly established a loyal following for its quality and distinctive style. In 2008, Decoy evolved from being a single, second-label wine supporting the Duckhorn Vineyards brand to being its own focused winery. Grapes for the Decoy line of wines come from a mix of Estate vineyards and top independent growers. Today, in addition to the original Decoy Red, the Decoy lineup includes a Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc—all of which are Sonoma County appellation-designated and highlight Decoy’s commitment to producing attractively priced wines made from exceptional vineyard sources with an emphasis on ready-upon-release wines that are capable of expressing their full charm and complexity.
