Ghost Block Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from Yountville, Napa Valley, arrives in magnum format as a concentrated, single-vineyard expression of classic Napa Cab. Sourced from the Ghost Block Vineyard in Yountville, this wine showcases saturated dark-fruit flavors — blackcurrant, blackberry and cassis — wrapped in firm tannins and a defined mineral/graphite thread. The texture is substantial and structured, making the magnum a particularly appealing format for extended dining and cellar aging. On the nose expect bramble and licorice-snap notes with hints of iris and mulberry; on the palate the wine is energetic and juicy through the finish while retaining a poised backbone that keeps fruit and tannin in balance. Food-friendly and decidedly robust, this Cabernet pairs exceptionally with grilled ribeye, braised short ribs and aged cheddar, and its ripe-but-reserved profile handles dark chocolate for after-dinner contrast. Reviewers have noted energetic dark-fruit intensity and a graphite spine that maintains clarity, and the magnum format often softens the wine’s tannic edges while extending freshness. For collectors and those seeking a statement Napa Cabernet in an elegant 1.5L format, Ghost Block Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Magnum) delivers both presence on the table and the structure for medium-to-long term ageing in the cellar.
