Ghost Clones

Ghost Block

Estate Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Inky in color with a reddish rim.

Strong nose of black fruits with chocolate notes, cedar, vanilla, tobacco, Indian spices and licorice.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, licorice, vanilla, chocolates, tobacco, spices, peppercorn, coffee, cola and herbs.

Long spicy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is another terrific wine from the problematic 2020 vintage in Napa Valley. Nicely balanced, complex and smooth. Elegant with a great mouthfeel.

Rich, extracted and in your face kind of wine. The nose is really gorgeous at this point.

Drinking beautifully now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 90 minutes in the decanter. Good by itself as a sipping wine.

A blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot. Organic.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$80.

Hallberg Vineyard - Dijon Clones Pinot Noir 2014

At its absolute peak, not a minute past, utterly beautiful! Potent and concentrated aromas of dark ripe cherries, berries; gorgeous tertiary mushroom and sous bois. Tart cherry. Loads of youthful vibrance, balanced with so much mature complexity. — 7 days ago

Twelve Clones Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir 2021

A big, hot cherry bomb. Bright fruit forward with cherry, ripe strawberry, cranberry, cinnamon, ginger, and ripe plum. Medium body, high alcohol, high acid, a long finish, and light tannins with a hint of American oak. — 9 days ago

Walter Hansel Winery

Cahill Lane Vineyard Chardonnay 2018

From 100% Wente clones that get max hang time, large and tiny berries packed together, pale lemon with subtle aromas of citrus and stone fruits. On the palate flavors of apple, lemon and lime flavors, crisp acidity, long finish ending with rich mineral character. Perfect now! — 2 months ago
