Vineyard Notes: Fields Family Vineyard was the 1st certified organic vineyard in the Lodi appellation. They have about 10 acres of Syrah, and a few other varieties, all planted around 1990. The vineyard is west of 99, just south of Acampo.
Cellar Notes: Received 3 tons of great-looking fruit early in the morning. All 3 tons were foot treaded in 1 ton macrobins & left to begin native fermentation. Fermentation finished on 9/25 & the wine was pressed to neutral oak on 9/28. After spending 21 months in barrel, the wine was racked & bottled without filtration.
Tasting Notes: Blueberry & violet aromas open up into riper plum & pluot notes, with mint, candied orange rind & a touch of leather. On the palate, the wine is bold & mouth-filling, with good acid, depth & clove & black tea lingering on the finish.
