Description
The Del Bondio and Pelissa families have had a close relationship and have been connected through time. The Del Bondio's arrived in the Napa Valley in 1902 and the Pelissa family began harvesting grapes in the valley in 1903.
Andrew Hoxsey, proprietor of Ghost Block and grandson of Andrew Pelissa, and Bryan Del Bondio, president of Markham Vineyards, have come together to create a Meritage blend from their respective Yountville vineyards: the Ghost Block Vineyard, which was part of pioneer George Yount's original land grant where he planted the first grapevines in the Napa Valley; and Markham's historic Yountville Vineyard, first planted after Prohibition, source of the winery's prestigious Merlots.
Andrew and Bryan, both founding members of the Yountville AVA, have come together to create this powerful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot.
