Decoy's premium cuvée "Decoy Limited" to be released by VTG in 2018

Decoy was launched in 1985 by Dan and Margaret Duckhorn as the second wine of Duckhorn Vineyards.

The company then expanded its own vineyards in Sonoma, and Decoy's grape suppliers shifted to Sonoma's finest vineyards, and today it also includes suppliers from cool, high-quality coastal areas, from Anderson Valley to Monterey.

Decoy's unchanging policy is "Reputation for delivering great quality at a remarkable price."

Finally, they have released the premium cuvée Decoy Limited following the same policy.
