That rare Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon under $40, the 2017 Silver Ghost delivers as a Napa Valley Cab should, with rich, ripe aromas of blackberry and black currant, impressive palate weight and a long finish. The tannins are ever so slightly mouth-puckering at the moment, but a good decant or another two years in the cellar should smooth those rough edges.
