Since our inaugural vintage, Duckhorn Vineyards has cultivated a deep pride in farming and crafting vineyard-designate Merlot from this iconic site. Named for its three distinct palm trees, Three Palms Vineyard spans 83 acres on an alluvial fan in northeastern Napa Valley and has developed Grand Cru status through consistent accolades and acclaim. Block 5, a 14.7-acre section forming the core of the Selby South portion of the vineyard, reflects the site’s hallmark rocky, well-drained soils and meticulous stewardship. Each vintage serves as a reflection of the dedication and artistry embedded in our history, advancing the vision of our founders, Margaret and Dan Duckhorn to produce nothing short of exceptional Merlot.

The 2022 Three Palms Block-5 Merlot captures a striking sense of precision and refinement, offering a beautifully composed expression of one of Napa Valley’s most iconic sites. Aromas of bright red cherry and raspberry unfold with graceful intensity, layered with hints of fig and huckleberry pie, while the palate is full-bodied and seamless, defined by polished tannins and a lifted, mineral-driven finish that carries with clarity and finesse. Sourced from the renowned Block 5 within Three Palms Vineyard, this wine reflects meticulous vineyard stewardship and exacting winemaking that preserves both purity and structure. The result is a Merlot of remarkable poise, crafted for moments that call for something truly distinguished.
