The 23 year old vineyard in Oakville, Napa Valley that is 100% Certified Organic. The site is comprised of deep, gravelly loam with a western exposure, and the vines produce very concentrated fruit late in the season. Winemaker Notes from Rob Lawson: The 2005 growing season was long and cool with a big crop. Patience, crop management and vine management were critical to this vintage in order to allow flavors to develop before picking. We waited and it paid off. The vines were in balance which allowed us to linger before shutting down. Tasting Notes: The 2005 vintage has beautiful and elegant aromas of cherry, blackberry, tobacco, spice and roses. On the palate the wine leads into a balanced mouth feel of ripe blackberries with deep dark chocolate and coffee in the mid-palate, to a long and lingering finish of toffee and cherries. Well balanced with great weight and structure. Will cellar well.

Eastern exposures allow for cooler afternoons and make for longer, more controlled ripening days. That is showcased in this full bodied cabernet that is bright and aromatic smelling of black berries, cherries, cassis, and spice. It leads to a ripe mid-pallet full of cocoa . . . <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/napawineco/Product743 TITLE="Ghost Block 2007 MorgaenLee Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/napawineco/images/ghost_block_07_ml_sbt.jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Ghost Block 2007 MorgaenLee Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc" NAME="Ghost Block 2007 MorgaenLee Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/napawineco/Product743 TITLE="Ghost Block 2007 MorgaenLee Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc">Ghost Block 2007 MorgaenLee Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc</A> -- Winemaker Notes from Rob Lawson: A ripe full bodied sauvignon blanc that has a great balance of aromas.
