Ghost Block Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 750 ML

Description

The 2022 Ghost Block Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of fruit sourced solely from the family-owned and organically farmed Rock Cairn vineyard in Oakville. Located in the Oakville appellation, grapes from the old vines of the Rock Cairn Vineyard have been long sought after by some of Napa Valleys finest wineries. It is named for rock cairns left by Native Americans who traveled through the hills of Yountville. The 30 precious acres are planted to Cabernet Sauvignon. 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 the 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.
