Field Recordings Chenin 2017
Central Coast, California, United StatesAndrew Jones is a vine nursery fieldman, planning and planting vineyards across California. Field Recordings is his personal garagiste project from special sites and vines he's become familiar with over the years. This Chenin is all old vine fruit, blending 1978 Jurassic Park vines, 1972 Schell Creek vines, and 1981 vines from Martin Ranch & Vineyards. Ripe quince, gooseberry, pear skin, almond is deeply bedded with meyer lemon and lees, and seasoned with gingersnap and cardamom spicing. Long and textural on the palate, this rich, impactful wine amazingly belies its slight 11.5 degree frame.
