In 1776, a group of idealists decided that something new was not only possible — it was necessary. They didn’t wait for permission.
Two hundred years later, Dan and Margaret Duckhorn drove up to Napa Valley with a similar disposition. No rulebook. No guarantee. Just a quiet confidence that this land could produce something the world hadn’t tasted yet.
They were right, of course. But that’s easier to say now.
This year, America turns 250. Duckhorn turns 50. We didn’t plan to share an anniversary with the country — but honestly, could there be a better coincidence? Two celebrations. One spirit. And a very good reason to open something special.
The vines are still growing. The belief is only stronger. From 1976 to forever.
Happy 4th.
