Located at the base of Spring Mountain in Napa Valley’s St. Helena appellation, Patzimaro Vineyard was named after the town of Patzimaro de Aviña in honor of the Hurtado Family, an essential part of the Duckhorn Vineyards winemaking team who migrated from this small village to the Napa Valley in 1987. The vineyard enjoys high daytime temperatures and cool evenings, allowing the fruit to fully ripen while retaining the natural acidity needed to create balanced, structured Cabernet Sauvignons highlighting classic characteristics of cassis, earth and black olive.

Staff Pick
Oscar's Pick
Full body, earth driven, and luscious dark fruit from St. Helena. The legacy behind this wine goes way back to the American Dream, the hard work and dedication of my family and their humble beginnings. Drinking this wine takes me back to my roots and is a wine very close to my heart.

Winemaker Notes
This estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon reveals gorgeous aromas of black cherry, currant, cocoa, Castelvetrano olive and moist earth. On the palate, firm age-worthy tannins unwind slowly, framing flavors of black currant, warm spice cake, slate and pomegranate molasses.
Production
The 2013 harvest was early, even and excellent with all of our Estate fruit in the winery by October 10th. A warm dry spring brought an early bud break and created ideal conditions for flowering and fruit set. In the weeks after Labor Day, a moderate heat event followed by a period of perfect weather created a dream scenario for end-of-season ripening. Rain was not a factor, and for the second vintage in a row, the quality of the grapes was exceptional throughout Napa Valley.
