2022 Ghost Block 'Single Vineyard' Cabernet Sauvignon Yountville

For over a century, the Pelissa family has been synonymous with Napa Valley’s most prestigious appellations—Oakville and Yountville. Today, their legacy endures through Ghost Block Estate Wines, where uncompromising quality meets a profound dedication to sustainability. Across 650 acres of organically farmed vineyards, Ghost Block meticulously cultivates grapes that reflect the essence of Napa’s terroir in every bottle.

The 2022 Ghost Block’s Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced entirely from the winery’s Ghost Block Vineyard in Yountville, bordering the cemetery where the town’s founder, George Yount, lies to rest. The crown jewel of the family’s estate, these prime 18 acres are planted 100% to Cabernet Sauvignon on top of rarely found exposed vertical bedding of tertiary volcanics. Beautiful aromas of blackberry compote, plum jam, and black & red currant.

At the helm of winemaking is Kristi Koford, who has crafted Ghost Block wines since 2001. With a deep background in both technical winemaking and behavioral studies, Kristi brings an innovative, yet approachable touch to her craft. Her meticulous approach ensures every bottle is a masterwork, tailored to reflect both the vineyard's spirit and the vision of its creators. As she so aptly puts it, "We make every effort to understand and implement our clients’ goals."
