Brad Friedman's Ghostnote project—a "ghost note" in musical terms, heard but not accented—applies this philosophy to winemaking with intention and restraint. This Super Santa Cruz blend from Ascona Vineyard channels the Super Tuscan spirit within California terroir, marrying Italian varieties with the Santa Cruz Mountains' cool elevation and mineral backbone. Naturally produced without heavy-handed winemaking, the wine lets varietal character and site speak clearly. Structured, food-friendly complexity.
