Score 87/100 · Drink 2002-2012, Robert Parker, Jun 2002

The last released of Duckhorn's 1998s is the Merlot Howell Mountain. This area had a lot of difficulty achieving ripe fruit in this vintage, so I was surprised by how well this effort turned out. A dense ruby/purple color is accompanied by chocolate, smoky, black cherry fruit in this medium-bodied Merlot. There are no hard edges or vegetal characteristics. Drink it over the next decade. Tel. (707) 963-7108
