An Invitation to Gather

On an ordinary Tuesday, Anna Page sets the table and opens a bottle of Three Palms Merlot, no occasion required. The idea is older than the winery itself. In the years before Duckhorn was founded in 1976, friends would turn up at Dan and Margaret’s house with bottles in hand, usually unplanned, to taste through them together late into the night. Those informal evenings are part of why Duckhorn exists at all. Fifty years on, the invitation still stands.
