DeLille Cellars D3 Red 2016
DeLille Cellars is a boutique artisan winery located in Woodinville, Washington that is largely considered to be one of the best in the state if not the country. They have racked up countless accolades in the 20+ years they’ve been around including New York Times’ Winery of the Year award, and having both red and white wines in both Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator’s Annual Top 100 wines of the Year list at the same time.
Their work with Bordeaux varietals is second to none outside of Bordeaux itself, which led the world’s greatest wine critic, Robert Parker, Jr. to declare after a visit to the winery that DeLille is “The Lafite Rothschild of Washington State”.
The 2016 D2 Blend was actually a Morton’s exclusive, giving it the ‘D3 moniker’. You can call it whatever you want, it’s delicious. If you haven’t had the chance to try any of their wines yet, now is your best chance! $38 on release, $35 is the cheapest you can find anywhere online… until now.
Original price was: $38.00.$29.00Current price is: $29.00.

MORE INFO
92+ Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate
The 2016 D3 Proprietary Red Wine is a blend of 59% Merlot, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. The nose displays a lush and dense core with dusty currant, plum and black raspberry sprinkled with a rocky minerality. The wine is medium to full-bodied on the palate, with deep concentration and focused balance, delivering complexity through the mid-palate and ending with a long, concentrated finish.
92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
The 2013 D2 is mostly Merlot but includes 34% Cabernet Sauvignon and a splash of Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. It has a Bordeaux-like bouquet of tobacco, earth, lead pencil, and graphite, with plenty of ripe dark fruit. Rounded, medium to full-bodied, and textured, it’s a terrific second wine to drink over the coming 10-15 years.
92+ Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
DeLille Cellars is arguably the best winery in Washington State and one of the few cult wineries outside of California in the U.S. Their work with Bordeaux varietals may be second to no one outside of Bordeaux. Their 2016 D2 blend was actually their 25th anniversary bottling and a Morton’s Exclusive, which is the reason for the ‘D3’ name. It’s an exceptional full-bodied Bordeaux blend with juicy dark fruits, tightly woven tannins and a hint of spice on the aftertaste. $38 on release, $35 the lowest price online.. until now.
