In 1877 the 9th bonded winery in California was established. That same winery is now home to our portfolio of wines: Ghost Block and Elizabeth Rose. We use our bond number as a way to distinguish our history and heritage in the Napa Valley.
The Bonded Winery #9 portfolio of brands is owned by a family that has been harvesting grapes in the Napa Valley for more than 100 years. The vineyards, in both the Oakville and Yountville appellations, are a sprawling 635 acres and 100% of the acres are certified organic. Each brand is a reflection of our property, our heritage and the extraordinary quality that the Oakville and Yountville appellations provide.

| GHOST BLOCK
Nestled on a gently sloping knoll on the north edge of Yountville, Ghost Block vineyard is named in honor of the historic Pioneer Cemetery for which it borders. According to local lore George C. Yount; who was the first person to plant a grapevine in the Valley, wanders the hillside overseeing the vast spectrum of an industry he himself founded on this very land.
Ghost Block is our premier Cabernet Sauvignon expressing the very best from our estate vineyards. Production is limited, always based on our very best fruit.
We are now carrying
Ghost Block Cabernet Sauvignon:
Distinctive flavors of Ghost Block and Rock Cairn were heightened with the 2007 growing season. Deep and concentrated with balance and structure. Bright aromas of roses, tobacco and spice lead to a full palate of blackberries, cherries and cocoa. The mid palate is full and leads to a bright long finish of cherries, caramel, spice, cassis and coffee.
