| Description: | DeLille Cellars is regarded as a top American producer of Bordeaux-style blends, and one of the shining stars in the Washington wine world. Showcasing a tradition of quality and excellence over its 30-year history, DeLille remains a principal influence in establishing Washington State as a premier viticultural region. It is quite common for DeLille to receive 96-97 points, or and "extraordinary" score, from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. This time around, it is their "d2" blend that has garnered the limelight!. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 93 Points - "The 2020 D2 Proprietary Red Wine was made from 61% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. The nose is as brilliant as always, with focused, dark red fruits, hints of black cherry skin and oak essence that sways out of the glass. Full-bodied and mineral tensioned, the palate offers fine-grained tannins with succulent healthy fruit flavors before ending with a fresh, food-friendly finish. At these prices, buy the entire case. About 108,000 bottles were filled after the wine rested in 68% new French oak for 20 months. Bravo!". Jeb Dunnuck 93 Points - "The more Merlot-dominated 2020 D2 offers a vivid purple/ruby hue as well as beautiful notes of ripe black cherries, tobacco leaf, sandalwood, and spring flowers. I love its purity, and it has terrific mid-palate depth, ripe tannins, and a great finish. The blend is 61% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, brought up in 60% new oak." |
