2006 Cha Cha

This white table wine blend showcases tropical fruit with a hint of buttered toast.


A fruit basket of flavors, this white table wine blend showcases tropical fruit with a hint of buttered toast. An exotic blend of multiple white grape varieties, this wine keeps you guessing with its vanilla spice and stone-fruit notes. A rich, medium bodied white wine that is easy drinking with a smooth, balanced finish.


A white wine that pairs well with pear, apple and monterey jack cheese appetizers. It goes with most chicken dishes and with rich cream sauce-based pastas. A great wine to chill down and enjoy with a chicken caesar salad or lightly spiced tuna salad. A true treat with brie and roasted garlic, or when you just need a glass of white wine to enjoy on the patio.


The Clarksburg appellation is known for producing top quality Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc, mainly due to its ideal climate for those varietals. As the Sacramento Valley heats up during the day, it pulls in the cool maritime breeze from the bay, which allows warm summer days and cool evenings. We take special care in all aspects of our grape growing from deficit irrigation, to precise pruning techniques to handpicking at harvest.


Grapes were hand harvested in the cool morning and whole cluster pressed. The juice was cold settled and fermented in cold temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. A portion was barrel fermented and allowed to undergo secondary malo-lactic fermentation with sur lees aging. The balance was kept in stainless steel barrels or tanks and was blended right before bottling.
