Sourced from the organically farmed Rock Cairn Vineyard in Oakville, the 2022 Ghost Block Cabernet shows a full-bodied, deeply colored profile with a layered, seductive bouquet. The nose is rich in blackberry, black currant and plum, with nuances of blueberry, mocha, and soft baking spice and oak. On the palate the wine delivers substantial weight but remains polished thanks to silky tannins and balanced acidity. Dark and red fruit flavors blend with cocoa, violet florals, and subtle allspice, underpinned by a gentle mineral streak and a finish shaped by 24 months in mostly French oak — long, elegant, and evocative. Drinkable now, but with the structure to age nicely over the next decade or more.
