Greenwing is a label under the umbrella of the Duckhorn Wine Company, part of their foray into Washington wines. It is currently under the leadership of Brian Rudin, head wine-maker and one of Washington’s rising stars.
Greenwing sources their grapes from the Columbia Valley APA, one of the largest and most diverse appellations in the United States. It is a region defined by the Cascade Mountains, which create a desert-like environment in Columbia Valley and provide soils rich in volcanic minerals. Cabernet Sauvignons from Columbia Valley are known for their depth and intensity, and Greenwing’s offering is no exception.
Scents of red fruits, such as raspberry, cherry, and luscious strawberry rise from the glass, along with floral notes and sage. This is a majority Cabernet Sauvignon blend, with some Syrah and a pinch of Malbec. The result is filling and juicy in the mouth, a full-bodied and angular red. Tart flavours of cherry and plum intermingle, and elements of baking spice linger into the long finish. It is perfect for those who want to try a delicious New World expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, with its focused fruit flavours and remarkable depth and complexity. It will complement some juicy red meat or herby mashed potatoes.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
