Field Recordings
Pèt Nat Dry Hop Chardonnay
Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
This is just super easy to drink and really fun. Refreshing, crushable. Like having a few beers at the bar.

What I like about Field Recordings is that Andrew Jones is building his brand on his identity as a field hunter or vine scout first. He has a resume for establishing grape relationships and using those to offer the best intersection of quality and price in the California natural wine arena.
Take this. The idea to mix Mosaic hops with sparkling Chardonnay may seem at first gimmicky. But it’s not. It’s simple and delicious. It’s just what you’d expect. Lemony and resiny and chalky and dry and lean and also very unique. And for $22.

2017 vintage. So yummy and tropical. Aromas are very much New Zealand-style hops with passionfruit, melon, orange blossom water, overripe peach, mango. Palate has great acidity and lots of citrus. Clean and lacking overt funkiness.

NV. These are the freshest, dankest hop aromas of the three bottles I’ve enjoyed. My daughter said it smelled like weed (🤔). Paired really well with roasted vegetables and goat cheese stuffed piquillos.

Jul 4th, 2021Pet Nat of Chardonnay, fermented Ancestral style and dry hopped on mosaic cones. Seems at first a kiddy gimmick but get yourself a couple oysters and some hot sauce and you’ll see this works - surprisingly well.Aromas of soapy resin and yeasty lemons. Flavors of a lemon shandy Pilsner. Only about 10% ABV, but the hops will tire you out a bit, so good for just a glass or two.
