About The Duckhorn Collection at Paraduxx
Paraduxx, founded in 1994 by Dan and Margaret Duckhorn, is the only winery in Napa Valley dedicated exclusively to crafting unique red blends. With a commitment to showcasing the character of Napa Valley, Paraduxx combines fruit from its own estate vineyards with grapes sourced from the finest local growers, resulting in bold and expressive wines that are both sophisticated and food-friendly. The winery features a state-of-the-art facility surrounded by the picturesque Rector Creek Vineyard, enhancing the visitor experience with stunning views and exceptional wines.
Why Visit The Duckhorn Collection at Paraduxx
Paraduxx bottles wines like Rector Creek Vineyard Block 4 and X2 that you won't find at other Napa producers — proprietary blends built from multiple estate vineyards and growers across the valley. The Reflections of Napa Valley tasting pours both Paraduxx and Duckhorn Vineyards wines, showing two different approaches from the same founders.
- Founded 1994 by Dan and Margaret Duckhorn to focus on red blends exclusively
- Rector Creek Vineyard Block 4 and Block 5 bottlings highlight single-block sources
- Reflections of Napa Valley tasting ($65) pours Paraduxx and Duckhorn side by side
- Gather & Graze ($175) pairs family-style courses with portfolio wines
The Setting
Rector Creek Vineyard wraps around the facility, planted in neat rows that run right up to the crush pad and barrel room. Large windows frame the vines, and visitors can watch the team work during harvest. The modern structure sits on Silverado Trail in the Stags Leap District, with the Vaca Range rising to the east.
The Tasting Experience
The Reflections of Napa Valley tasting ($65) places Paraduxx blends next to Duckhorn Vineyards wines, highlighting what each label does with Napa fruit. For a longer visit, Gather & Graze ($175) serves family-style courses with wines from across the portfolio. Hosts explain how blends like Candlestick and X2 come together from different vineyards each vintage.
