Winemaker Notes

The grapes for Ghost Pines Chardonnay 2006 were whole cluster pressed to eliminate bitterness and to maximize fresh fruit characters. After press, the juice was settled for 12-24 hours prior to inoculating with Montrachet and Premier Cuvee yeast strains. The juice was allowed to ferment for 2-3 weeks at 60oF, producing clean, expressive Chardonnay character. To create a more complex mouthfeel, a portion of the wine underwent sur lie aging and was influenced by oak. A portion of our Chardonnay completed malolactic fermentation, contributing a buttery texture along with deep, layered flavors.

Ghost Pines Chardonnay 2006 possesses expressive fruit-forward characters, the result of sourcing only Premium fruit from three of California's most recognized Chardonnay appellations: Sonoma, Napa and Monterey Counties. Modern winemaking technique allowed this wine to express characters of baked apple and lemon cream accented by an elegant, sweet, toasty vanilla finish.

Ghost Pines knows no boundaries. Without the restriction of traditional winegrowing boundaries, Ghost Pines wines 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. Ghost Pines embodies the progressive spirit of California winemaking and inspires a sense of individuality. 

Named after the Ghost Pines Vineyard in eastern Napa County, here the indigenous grey pines loom mysteriously along the hillsides. Native to California, the Ghost Pine can adapt to a variety of climates and thrives in various soils, much like grapevines. This vineyard has been a primary fruit source since the very first vintage.
