Field Recordings Wonderwall Chardonnay 2020 Edna Valley

Chardonnay 100%

Exactly what you expect from Andrew Jones of Field Recordings. This Chard comes from Edna Valley which is loacted just outside of the student town of San Luis Obispo. The vineyards in this valley bounded by the Santa Lucia mountains and cool by breezes from the Pacific ocean. These two climatic influences allow the production of cool climate wines.

Field Recordings is 35-year old winemaker Andrew Jones’ personal catalogue of the people and places he values most, coaxed in to a bottle of delicious and very meaningful wine. Spending his days as a vine nursery fieldman planning and planting vineyards for farmers all over California, Andrew is sometimes offered small lots of their best fruit on the side. Having stood in just about every vineyard on the Central Coast, he has a keen eye for diamonds in the rough: sites that are unknown or under-appreciated but hold enormous untapped potential. As friendships are made and opportunities are embraced, Andrew produces small quantities of soulful wine from these unusual, quiet vineyards.
