PARADUXX
PROPRIETARY RED
2018 NAPA VALLEY
BY DUCKHORN WINE CO.
Paraduxx steadfastly produces showy blends to encapsulate the fascinating character and profound complexity that put Napa Valley on the map. Dan Duckhorn gathered seven unique properties specifically for Paraduxx. He chose them for distinct attributes, reflected in their soil variation, terrain, microclimate, and sun exposure. Brandishing captivation and balance, Paraduxx wines personify Napa Valley terroir and American winemaking freedom.
Winemaker Cardiff Scott-Robinson takes inspiration from the world’s most noble blends, crafting deep, charming reds with a distinct identity. He created this year’s Paraduxx with 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, dressed with six other varietals, for added intrigue and personality.
Napa Valley’s 2018 vintage provided temperate weather and abundant hang-time, resulting in the fruit’s fully developed flavors and excellent natural acidity. Once harvested, the grapes were gently pressed and fermented before transferring by gravity to the winery’s barrel rooms, where the wine spent the next 18 months developing in French oak.

“Deep, dark and luxurious, this wine offers alluring aromas of blackberry, black cherry, blueberry, currant and cocoa powder, with underlying hints of saddle leather, cinnamon and clove. The voluptuous dark berry notes are echoed on the palate where they are framed by supple tannins and sophisticated layers of anise, vanilla, sweet tobacco leaf and fresh-cracked black pepper, all of which carry the wine to a juicy dark berry finish.”
