THE MYTH AND MYSTERY OF THE GHOST HORSE WORLD

In the late 1990s, Todd Anderson began making a wine he told almost no one about.

The first vintage was 2000. For nearly a decade, Ghost Horse stayed a secret. In December 2009, a double-blind tasting in New York City put it against the cult wines of the world, and the world learned these wines existed.

Five Cabernets, each 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, each from a different part of the vineyard and made in its own way. 250 cases a year. A small amount of Chardonnay has been added since 2012.

How do they stand up? Against the cult wines, the 100-point wines and the great Cabernets of the world, Ghost Horse has come out on top. Todd’s answer: “Those other wines are in my cellar too.”
