Ghost Block Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Estate 2021 (Napa Valley, California) - [WS 94]
Vineyard Notes: The 2021 Ghost Block Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of fruit sourced from our family-owned and organically farmed Rock Cairn vineyard. This property is characterized by deep, gravelly loam soil with a western exposure. The vines produce highly concentrated fruit late in the season and are typically the last picks of our harvest. Five blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon separated by age reside on this site, ranging from 5- to 35-year-old plantings. This provides an opportunity for capturing characteristics that are specific to vine age, creating a perfect blend to express this valuable site. In this particular vintage, we have incorporated fruit from two of our other estate vineyards in Yountville and Oakville to complement this complex wine. Tasting Notes:This wine presents a captivating deep rub-red hue, accompanied by luxurious aromas of blackcurrant, ripe plum, and blackberries, complemented by subtle notes of cedar, vanilla, dark chocolate, and black pepper
