When Duckhorn really got serious is when they purchased Kosta Browne for access to some of the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley and then bought Calera for six of the most coveted blocks of Pinot Noir in the whole Central Coast. Immediately, their portfolio became one of California’s best, but one thing was still missing – a great value Cabernet.
Enter Postmark– the final piece de resistance holding the Duckhorn Family back from interstellar domination. Last year’s rendition was made in Napa Valley. I found it an odd choice. There’s a lot of great places in California to grow Cabernet and just about every place is less expensive than the fruit they were getting. It had to have been a losing venture.
But Dan Duckhorn didn’t get to where he is on dumb luck– so after just one vintage, he made a big change that likely corrected the course. For the 2019 vintage, the Duckhorn’s decided that the pick of the litter from inarguably California’s hottest AVA, Paso Robles, beat the pants off their St. Helena & Oak Knoll options.
Who am I to argue? They settled in the home to Daou, Adelaida, and Austin Hope amongst others and got their check books out– picking the perfect vintage to do so.

Fresh and fruity aromas of cherry and strawberry meet with notes of French toast and light herbs on the nose of this bottling. Those juicy fruits come through on the palate as well, with a baked red-cherry flavor that is framed by cigar-box and nutmeg accents.

#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2021
96 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points, Wine Spectator
We are one of the very few folks who have Wine Spectator’s #3 Wine of the Year. This is definitely not one to miss. The 2016 vintage showcases this prized vineyard in all its glory; notes of wild black fruit, thyme, mint, eucalyptus, and bay are lifted and enjoyed with the polished tannin and mouthwatering freshness of this wine. Regarded as one of the best vintages in the last few decades, the 2016 Martha’s Vineyard has been aged to perfection for immediate enjoyment at release and will continue to reward for the next 20+ years.

The new release is here from outstanding winemaking team of Michel Rolland, Charles Thomas, Andy Erickson and David Jelenik. This one always represents one of the best quality-to-price ratios in all of Napa Cab and in the stellar 2021 vintage, this really stands out as one of the best the Valley has to offer. It’s a racy mix of Coombsville fruit from Atlas Peak that absolutely roars out of the bottle. Always one of Napa’s great bargains and a must have even as the price starts to sneak up here a little bit.
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!

“The 2018 Palmer is a legend in the making…This audacious Palmer was still revving its engines 48 hours after opening. There will never be another Palmer like this, sui generis. It was a massive risk. But by throwing caution to the wind, something extraordinary was born.” -100 points, Vinous
