Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 90
The deep plum-hued 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate has a darker, mineral-laced nose of black fruits, scorched earth, graphite, and iron. It's medium to full-bodied, with a nicely textured mouthfeel and quality tannins, all making for a rock-solid 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon that should have a decade of longevity. Drinking Window 2023-2033.
Vineyard Notes
The fruit for the 2020 Ghost Block Estate Oakville Napa Cabernet Sauvignon comes from our family-owned Rock Cairn vineyard. The 33-year-old vineyard in Oakville, Napa Valley is 100% Certified Organic. This site is comprised of deep, gravelly loam with a western exposure, and the vines produce very concentrated fruit late in the season. In this particular vintage, we have blended in two of our other estate vineyards in Yountville and Oakville to bring you this magical wine.
Wine Tasting Notes
Ghost Block Cabernet presents a pleasing equilibrium between luscious dark fruit, blackberries, and plums, accompanied by subtle notes of violet, chocolate, vanilla, and spices that enhance the flavors on the palate. The velvety mid-palate is elegantly framed by refined grain tannins, leading to a crisp and lingering finish. With its well-structured and intricate nature, this wine is an ideal companion for grilled lamb chops.
96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Malbec, 2% Petit Verdot
Alcohol 14.5%
