96 Points - Wine Enthusiast #1 Wine of the Year, Editors' Choice

This is a magnum 1.5L bottle. This item has a 1-bottle limit, strictly enforced.

Monitor Ledge is named for an outcropping of rock in the mountains overlooking the vineyard and has been an important component of Duckhorn Vineyards wine blends since 1985. Located on the alluvial fan of Selby Creek and featuring lean, well-draining soils that force the small berry-producing vines to struggle, Monitor Ledge benefits from excellent sun exposure that consistently produces ideal ripening. This unique wine displays exceptional intensity and structure alongside rich dark berry elements and complex barrel flavors.

Varietal Composition: 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot

Winemaker Notes

This luscious wine beckons with beautiful blue and black fruit aromas, as well as seamlessly integrated hints of French oak, cinnamon and licorice. On the palate this bright and juicy Cabernet Sauvignon reveals layers of blueberry, blackberry and dried cherry, with notes of graphite and clove emerging on the lush, focused finish.

Production

2019 brought another exceptional vintage to Napa Valley, resulting in wines with alluring polish and poise! The season began with a wet winter followed by a mild spring. While this led to a slightly later-than-normal start to the season, ideal summer weather with no significant heat spikes ensured ideal flavor development, yielding complex and vibrant whites, and refined reds with elegant tannins, enticing aromatics and beautiful fruit flavors.
