Enfield Wine Co.

Heron Lake Vineyard Chardonnay 2018

Doesn’t bowl you over with concentration but Enfield is all about subtlety and balance. Green apple, pear, slightly bitter lemon finish, not a whiff of butter or vanilla or toast in sight — 3 years ago

Valdigue Nouveau 2020

Things of nature don’t usually exist in glowing magenta.

Cruse’s 2020 Valdigue Noveau is an ode to the Nouveaus of Beaujolais.

Like the others, his starts bubbly, fruity, carbonic. Gets interesting with a detour to raw, stemmy, rosemary woods. Finishes tart - cranberries and cedar dust.

@Norman Gennaro, I will ping you for sure. I’ll probably be snowboarding in California in 24. Weeks can connect then. As for the Nerds, coordinating something is more tricky due to geographical spread and schedules.

Bedrock Wine Co.

Nervo Ranch Heritage Alexander Valley Red Blend

Stone fruits, some spice. Piercing acidity. Maybe the blend but drank a bit like a southern Rhone. Didn’t stand up to Melissa Clark’s Hoisin Glazed Pork Bowl. — 4 years ago

Viviser Gutedel 2019

Tastes like a high quality white Burgundy. A profound wine of power and beauty. Blew all other 10 Gutedels/Chasselas‘s out of the water. Although my co-Tasters from Baden did not agree because his style and vinfication is different. Reductive. Quite stinky nose which blows off. Awesome, especially the next day. Hazelnut, plenty of acid, marble dust, lime, hint pine needles. Some tannins. Build to last. This is great! At a friends house in Freiburg im Breisgau. — 2 years ago

Botijo Blanco Single Estate Garnacha

Цена в России - 740 рублей.
Гарнача Бланка - 100%
Виноградники площадью 6 га на высоте 460 м, на северо-восточном склоне. Возраст лоз от 25 лет. 30 часов мацерации без диоксида серы, автохтонные дрожжи. 15 дней в подземных цементных баках при температуре 18-20 градусов, 4 месяца выдержки в цементе на осадке без баттонажа. Органическое вино.
Цвет соломенный.
Нос: зелёное яблоко, груша, лайм, хрустящие тона, солома, полевые цветы. В развитии медовые тона, цветы, гравий, раскаленный песок, карамель. Красивое развитие. 
Атака яркая, с хрустящей кислотностью и лёгкой горечью, с нотами цедры лимона и яблочной косточки. Пряное послевкусие. 
Вино интересное. Возможно, посредством выдержки на осадке смогли с одной стороны добиться интересного носа, но в то же время во вкусе появилась горечь, из-за этого вино не очень питкое. Как вариант, можно сильно охладить, но тогда нос не будет таким красивым. 
В любом случае, это базовое вино линейки винодельни, к тому же это был виноград с не самого удачного склона! В общем, вино скорее понравилось, чем нет. 16/20.

Garnacha blanca 100%
6 hectares of vineyards are located at altitude of 460 meters, on northeast slope. Age of vines is above 25 years. Autochtonous yeast. 4 months in cement reservoirs sur lie without battonage. Organic wine.
Pale colour.
On the nose: green apple, pear, lime, wheat sticks, wild flowers. Later some honey notes, blossom dust, gravel, hot sand, caramel. Beautiful evolution of bouquet.
Bright on the palate, with crispy acidity and light bitterness, with tones of lemon zest and apple pit. Spicy finish.
Interesting wine. Probably, 'sur lie' aging helped to reach complex bouquet, but some bitterness occurred, and wine became less smooth. Optionally, one can cool down the wine pretty well, but that's a kind of trade-off - in this case rich bouquet would be lost.
But hey, that is not a top wine of this winery production! They produce better wines like 'El jardin de las iguales' (which I haven't taste yet... unfortunately 🙂 ) and much more. Even the slope is not the best... And they definitely did everything they could!
Very nice wine.
90/100.
