Silver Ghost Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, California

The lion’s share of the wine is Cabernet Sauvignon with equal, lesser percentages of Merlot, and Syrah and a small amount of Zinfandel. This wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered. The nose evokes black cherry cordial, fresh blackberries, strawberry rhubarb pie, mocha, cedar, dark chocolate, and a hint of graphite. On the palate, it bursts with mixed berry compote, cacao, and toasted walnuts on the finish. This wine has a great texture that ultimately finishes with round, silky smooth tannins.
