Watson Ranch Napa Valley Chardonnay

Drinking this up. Not at the top of the what he usually does. See my July notes same vintage. Or? this is just not my favorite vineyard/terroir.

Good but could not beat the 2019 vintage. No formal notes. 12.7%. In my book the best Cali/Burgh maker ever.

Simply superb! 12.4 Napa Chard? Hell yeah. Smooth, silken, near-perfection. Ripe pear, melon, and dark, black apple. Great acid-fruit balance…soft, flirty fruit. What a pure pleasure with gratin and Smoking Goose rum soaked ham….

White flowers, peach, saline, dense and long 💥

12.4%. Apply nose. Enfield’s whites are fantastic and this is no exception. A Napa Chard at this % level😱. Just 780 bottles made. A great wine. Needs to settle. Give it 5 years. There is a hidden power in this one. Meyer lemon, white peach, camomile, herbs. Quite closed. A brilliant Cali Card. A winemaker to watch getting better every year.
