Decoy Merlot 2022 750ml offers a delightful taste profile, often characterized by notes of black cherry, plum, and a hint of mocha, with smooth tannins and a lingering finish. Produced by Duckhorn Vineyards, the Decoy label was established to create approachable, fruit-forward wines that reflect the Duckhorn quality and winemaking philosophy, making it a great entry point into their portfolio. This Merlot is worth trying for its consistent quality, versatility with food, and its ability to deliver a rich, satisfying red wine experience without the premium price tag of some of its Napa Valley counterparts.
