Decoy is part of the Duckhorn Wine Company. Light straw with fresh aromas of stone fruits and floral notes. On the palate apple and peach flavors with a light touch of citrus. Good balance, fresh acidity, medium finish ending with a sweet touch.

Fruit on the nose is met with sufficient acidity on the palate. Lovely long finish. -- Wineshout.com

Oaky, buttery, but not annoying and cloying.
