Organically grown grapes, they come from a small part of the Field family vines where the soil is rich in minerals and has a sandy and loamy texture. This chardonnay is made with whole cluster fermentation and native yeast fermentation before being aged in neutral oak.
The 2020 vintage of this Russian River chardonnay is riper, with notes of flint on the nose and pineapple on the palate. Then the 2021 is more reserved and could use some extra time to open. It has a more mineral presence with an apple profile thanks to an earlier harvest in 2021. Overall, in both vintages we find a chardonnay that is balanced with great minerality and fruit and has a long finish.
Small production of only 250 cases were made of this Russian River Chardonnay.
This Gewürztraminer skin contact wine from the Santa Lucia Highlands in California was left on the skins for 15 days creating an inviting orange color. It has juicy white raisin taste which is balanced with minerality, creating a long finish and pleasant mouthfeel with just the right amount of residual sugar.
Field is located in California, USA.
