Winery Tasting Notes: Why the name Ocean’s Ghost for this cuvee? All of the soils on my ranch are remnants of an ancient sea. From the deep sandy loams in our lower vineyards to the shallow decomposed sandstone on TOP CREAM’S bench, evidence of the ocean’s touch is everywhere. The soil in Ocean’s Ghost is very similar to that in Top Cream. The block, however, is situated on our westernmost mesa which is completely exposed to the daily ocean breeze, making it perfect for Pinot Noir. Beginning eons ago, the ubiquitous influence of the ocean continues.
