Ghost Pines Cabernet Sauvignon 2016, 75 cl
Regular price £19.90
Ghost Pines Cabernet Sauvignon is rich, soft and structured with aromas of vanilla, brown spice and toasted oak that lead to a palate of dark fruit characteristics, including blackberry and dark cherry. Combining desirable mid-palate viscosity and a full mouthfeel, this Cabernet has a smooth, lingering finish. Grapes for the 2016 vintage were sourced from Sonoma (64%), Lake County (29%) and Napa (7%). Read more.

Description
Ghost Pines knows no boundaries. Without the restriction of traditional wine growing boundaries, grapes are sourced solely for quality and flavor from wherever the best fruit can be found. Though sourcing changes from year to year, this philosophy delivers wines of consistent quality with a distinct combination of richness, smoothness and balance that could never be mistaken for ordinary. Named after the indigenous Gray Pines dotting Northern California's hillsides.

1870 Sour Cocktail Recipe
The Sour Cocktail is versatile – whether you decide to switch up the Whisky, sour or sweet element, the end result will almost always be delicious – just remember to stick to that golden ratio of 2 parts Whisky, 1 part sour and 1 part sweet (but hey, if your personal preference is different, you do you!). The 1870 Sour, also known as the New York Sour ,updates the Whiskey Sour recipe (whiskey, lemon, sugar, egg white) with a float of dry red wine. (Psst, a float is when you suspend the final ingredient on top of the drink!). Everyone loves a good layered cocktail. They are fun to make and look amazing in photos - perfect for Instagram. The New York sour has been around longer than any living human. It’s thought that this cocktail was created around the 1870s/1890's - certainly a modern classic! If you’re after something sweeter, bourbon or brandy are both great options. Prefer a smokier sour? A scotch will be your go-to. When it comes to the sour substitution, lime is a more subtle option if you find lemon too overpowering, alternatively you can opt for a sweeter pick like orange or a more savoury choice like grapefruit. And when it comes to the egg white and no egg white debate, well, it’s completely up to you!
