Decoy Wines by Duckhorn Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles Limited 2023 offers a balanced expression of ripe black currant, blackberry, and dark plum, complemented by savory notes of tobacco, cedar, and subtle mocha spice. The wine showcases Paso Robles’ signature sun-kissed fruit intensity alongside refined tannins and a touch of graphite minerality, creating a structure that is both approachable and layered. Its oak influence is elegant, adding vanilla and dark chocolate nuances without overpowering the fruit. This Cabernet combines New World richness with Old World restraint, making it reminiscent of a polished Napa style but with a distinctive Paso Robles character. It finishes with lingering tobacco leaf and spice notes, inviting both immediate enjoyment and short-term aging.

Serve it with grilled ribeye, roasted lamb, or hearty mushroom dishes to complement its depth and complexity.
