Wine Spectator – 94 points
A solid, fruit-driven version, this red offers cassis, plum pâte de fruit and boysenberry compote flavors backed by licorice and apple wood notes. A late tug of warm earth adds length and drive.

Ghost Block’s 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate incorporates some Yountville fruit in the blend, along with tiny proportions of Malbec (3%) and Petit Verdot (1%). Initial nosings reveal black cherries and cassis, an attractive combination of ripe, pure fruit nicely framed by 60% new French oak. It’s medium to full-bodied, plush, soft and elegant, easy to drink yet with enough structure to pair well with steak off the grill.
