Decoy Brut Cuvie Sparkling Wine (750Ml)

Description

Decoy is a sparkling wine brand from the well-known Duckhorn Vineyards, offering high-quality wines at a more approachable price than the main Duckhorn label. This wine is made in California, USA, using the traditional Champagne method, where the second fermentation happens directly in the bottle to create fine, delicate bubbles. It is a Brut style, which means it is mostly dry but has a subtle touch of sweetness, making it versatile and refreshing. The wine is Non-Vintage (NV), meaning it blends wines from different years to achieve consistent flavor and quality.

Decoy sparkling wine is crafted primarily from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with a small addition of Pinot Meunier, and is finished with a little extra wine that includes French oak barrel-fermented Chardonnay for added richness. On the palate, it delivers flavors of baked apple, white peach, and orange zest, complemented by hints of honeysuckle, vanilla, and brioche.

It has bright acidity, fine bubbles, and a crisp, refreshing finish, making it highly enjoyable on its own or paired with food. With an alcohol content of 12.5%–13.5%, it is perfect as an apéritif and pairs beautifully with shellfish, seafood, salads, appetizers, and cheese. Decoy is consistently highly rated, often receiving around 90 points from Wine Spectator and Wine & Spirits.
