Funky nose with a cleaner palate. Savory and a little Jura like.

This is the 2015 Enfield White Wine "on Skins" Brosseau Vineyard.

Fun tasting at Weygandt Wines with John Lockwood. The second of four wines being poured. Definitely unfiltered and medium to deep yellow. A little floral on the nose with some dirt and honeycombs. Love the mouthfeel and texture, balanced tannins (5.5/10) and acidity (6/10). Dark citrus notes with some hay. Packs a punch with a medium plus body. Just as John says "this wine is like rock and roll". A slight zing in the long finish. Drink till 2020.

This wine is made up of 60% Chenin Blanc and the rest of Marsanne, Roussanne and Viognier. Aged for 16 months in neutral oak on the lees.

This is actually the 2020 Jurassic Park Chenin blanc - served with Thai dinner and salmon dinner. Low to no acid, smooth yet crisp and complex. Yellow apples, peach, and gravel. Really enjoyed it with the food pairing would love to try with spicer dishes.

A fun wine to drink - it lacks the finish of the core wines of the Enfield line up but I appreciate the willingness to take a chance, and it’s still a solid wine that is focused on aromatics but still has the minerality I think of with Enfield.
