    TASTING HIGHLIGHTS 9 West Coast Red Blends for Sweater Weather Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and more newly reviewed wines from California and Washington Some of Limerick Lane's vines date to the !rst plantings in 1910. (Richard Knapp) By Augustus Weed Oct 7, 2019 Tasting Highlights' wine reviews are fresh out of the tasting room, o!ering a sneak peek of our editors' most recent scores and notes to WineSpectator.com members. Red blends are red hot these days, with winemakers across the West Coast making both oddball and traditional-style blends from a variety of di"erent grapes, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and everything in between. Today's selection casts a wide net with highly rated wines from California and Washington. Topping the list is a gutsy blend from Limerick Lane [https://www.winespectator.com/wine/search/submitted/Y/search_by/exact/text_search_#ag/winery/winery/Limerick+Lane] . Winemaker Chris Pittenger combined mostly Syrah with Zinfandel and Petite Sirah from the winery's 30-acre estate vineyard in the northeast corner of the Russian River Valley appellation. Alexana [https://www.winespectator.com/wine/search/submitted/Y/search_by/exact/text_search_#ag/winery/winery/Alexana] winemaker Bryan Weil looked farther north to the Columbia Valley in Washington for the supple Gran Rouge. It's a Southern Rhône–inspired blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre that shows how well these grapes complement each other. Eric Kent [https://www.winespectator.com/wine/search/submitted/Y/search_by/exact/text_search_#ag/winery/winery/Eric+Kent] made one of the best values here, using grapes from Mendocino County.

  • Duckhorn Vineyards Has Spent Almost Forty Years Establishing Itself As One of North America’S Premier Producers of Napa Valley Wines
    History Co-founded by Dan and Margaret Duckhorn in 1976, Duckhorn Vineyards has spent almost forty years establishing itself as one of North America’s premier producers of Napa Valley wines. From its modest inaugural vintage of 800 cases of Cabernet Sauvignon and 800 cases of Merlot in 1978 to its addition of Sauvignon Blanc in 1982, Duckhorn Vineyards has crafted a tradition of quality and excellence that continues today. Fundamental to this tradition was the early, pioneering decision by Duckhorn Vineyards to focus on the production of Merlot. Though many Napa Valley wineries were using Merlot as a blending grape in the late seventies, few were exploring the potential of this varietal as a stand- alone wine. A great fan of Merlot since traveling to St. Emilion and Pomerol, Dan Duckhorn felt that this elegant varietal was underappreciated in North America. “I liked the softness, the seductiveness, the color,” says Dan, “the fact that it went with a lot of different foods; it wasn't so bold, didn't need to age so long, and it had this velvety texture to it. It seemed to me to be a wonderful wine to just enjoy. I became enchanted with Merlot.” Dan also believed that the American palate was undergoing a gradual but dramatic shift, moving away from jug producers toward quality varietal wine. This conviction made the timing perfect for the introduction of Duckhorn Vineyards’ Napa Valley Merlot. The quality of Duckhorn Vineyards wines has always been based on a commitment to selecting the finest fruit. Whether carefully sourcing grapes from top sites in the Napa Valley or committing itself to establishing a world-class estate vineyard program, the winery was built on the belief that great wines begin in the vineyard.
