Hi Casemates! We’ve gotten our bubonic plague vaccinations and are thoroughly excited to join the lab rat community. Mrs. Z and I are regular purchasers of wine here - primarily reds along with the occasional rose or sparkler. So naturally Arianna decided to send us a bottle of an obscure white. (The internet is built on a firm foundation of irony, and we’re delighted to play some small role in perpetuating that legacy.)
So, the good news up front: we both REALLY liked this wine. And that’s somewhat surprising, since we have some strong and idiosyncratic personal preferences when it comes to white wine, which is perhaps why we don’t normally drink that much of it. Full disclosure of our biases: Mrs. Z came of age on crisp sauvignon blancs, while I generally find them to be one-note and overly acidic, and usually can’t get excited about them. American chardonnay typically bums us out, since we despise the typical overload of malolactic fermentation and oak. (Butter is for toast and wood is for bourbon, y’know?)
Mrs. Z doesn’t get as passionate on the subject as me, but she’d really rather just drink a bone dry french rose and avoid the argument. So then, if it just HAS to be white, we default to something inoffensive like a Vouvray, but then it’s somehow never as good as even your basic cheap house wine in France. Or maybe it’s pinot grigio, which then gets me thinking about my great-aunt who just HAD to have Santa Margherita served to her at our wedding, so we brought it in special for her because we love her, but still we not-so-secretly judge her for it and… damn it, honey, why don’t we just shut up about my aunt and drink champagne instead?
You get the point. When we both really enjoy a white wine, that’s saying something. OK, tasting notes: on the nose, we both immediately detected strong notes of green apple. (I thought I smelled some grass, Mrs. Z thought that was nonsense and she’s probably right.) Based on the smell, both of us immediately thought we were about to sample a garden-variety savvy B.
We were wrong, and we knew it on the first taste. My immediate reaction was “wow, this doesn’t taste at ALL like I thought it would.” I didn’t find it sharp at all. Rather, smooth and mellow - and then on the finish, almost a hint of richness. While it smelled like sauvignon, I thought it tasted more like what a really interesting Chardonnay SHOULD taste like, minus all the oak and butter nonsense.
Mrs. Z saw things a bit differently - on first tasting, she found it much brighter and more acidic than I did. She observed that it “jumped on her tongue,” without being bubbly or crisp. She found the finish to be pleasantly dry, and commented that it left her wanting a nutty cheese.
Both of us agreed that the wine tasted complex and thoughtfully crafted. Precisely the opposite of the sort of one-note bottles that get us so annoyed with many white wines.
Food pairing: did I mention that we didn’t expect to get a bottle of subtle white wine today? You can tell because our dinner was spicy chili. PRO TIP: DON’T pair this wine with spicy chili, unless you really enjoy replacing subtle flavor with dull blandness.
With our palates belatedly cleansed, the wine did much better with a nice creamy coleslaw and some raw bell peppers. The subtlety was back, and the wine even made some pretzel bread taste better. Finally, we tested Mrs. Z’s theory and enjoyed a few sips with a bit of Toscano cheese. She thought that pairing was a home run. I enjoyed it too, though maybe not as much as with the sweet crisp veggies. With the cheese, the wine tasted sharper to me - suddenly I noticed some grapefruit for the first time.
If we had it to do over again, I think I’d drink this with a Spanish dinner - manchego cheese, boquerones, marcona almonds, maybe a little jamon iberico… start with this bottle and then move on to a palo cortado sherry or the like.
OK, having now compared our notes and written this up blind, it was finally time to google the wine. I’m not surprised at all to see that it’s a blend of non-boring grapes. We’re both a little dispapointed that we didn’t guess the presence of albarino - a grape we’re both pretty fond of. Can’t say I notice the starfruit or white peach, but enthusiastically agree with the winemaker’s characterization as well-rounded, light on the feet, and easy to get along with.
WSRP of $22 feels just about right for this complex but eminently approachable wine. At $10-$11 a bottle, it’s a no-brainer. We’re in for six.
I’ve written entirely too many words already, but happy to answer any questions that may help you determine whether your tastes will align with those of us two oddballs.
@MarkDaSpark Thanks for the rec. I once lost a perfectly good day of my life tasting all the sparkling varieties at Iron Horse’s vineyard, and their bubbles are an auto buy for us. Haven’t spent any quality time with their still wines, but I have one in our basement right now from the last offer, so thanks for getting me excited about it.
@jakezim@MarkDaSpark agree on both counts! Fine report and with a little care you can find lovely California Chardonnay which is either unoaked, or appropriately oaked (which means you’re aware it’s not wholly unoaked, but everything blends harmoniously so that the fruit flavors are enhanced, not masked or overwhelmed). The best Chardonnay needs some oak, even in France where grand cru white Burgundies and Chablis see some oak and are capable of aging 20 years or more (though best in their teens).
The sad story of over-oaking in California has its origins in the good intentions of James Zellerbach who planted Chardonnay (Wente clone) and Pinot Noir in the Mayacamas mountains in the early 50s. His ‘57s (first production I remember) were a revelation to those who had not thought California could make Burgundian style wines. (Though there were occasional one-off successes, like the late ‘40s Pinot Noir Andre made at Beaulieu and spent the rest of his career unsuccessfully trying to recreate). At any rate, with the rush of planting more and more fruit on less suitable soil, and the explosion of wine, plus the more is better school, we ended up with overuse of oak at the high end and misuse of oak staves and chips at the low end. A sad story of meeting consumers’ perceived demand with a vengeance…
Hi Everyone,
This is Faith, I am the winemaker for Farmstrong and I wanted to pop in and see if anyone had questions about my Farmstrong Field White blend that I could answer? I love this wine and I am excited to have this opportunity to share her with the casemates community!!
@FarmstrongWines hi, thanks for making your wine available to us at such a great price! Do you have any favorite foods to pair with this blend? And would you recommend I drink it all this summer, or should I try and save a couple bottles for a few years?
@CruelMelody this wine is super food friendly, it goes with so many things! The wine has a combination of richness and palate weight (mouthfeel) from the Grenache Blanc, so it can hold up to richer foods and then it has vibrancy from the Albariño to make it an easy choice with fresher lighter foods. The aromatics from the Verdelho keep it lively and inviting…which also means it drinks wonderfully just as a sipper on its own. It will be drinking beautifully all summer, but if you have some left this summer don’t hesitate to put it with a hearty Coq au Vin this fall!
@novium The wine had a pH of 3.25 and a TA of 5.6g/L at the time of bottling. As far as the experience of the acidity on the palate, it does not seem sharp, however, it has provide a nice vibrancy and age-ability to this wine, as well as making it very food friendly.
@FarmstrongWines very nice, and thanks for answering! Are you green or brown juice? I know the latter isn’t exactly common but I’m always on the lookout.
How much more are you saving by buying a full case?

2015 Farmstrong Field White Blend - $20 = 14.28%
Hi Everyone,
I wanted to wish everyone a happy earthday and check in to see if anyone had any questions about Farmstrong Wines, the vineyards or my winemaking style…or something about the Field White
@rjquillin this wine has lots of beautiful natural acidity which means it ages very well. Everyone is looking for something different, but for a fresh white wine expression it will easily hold up for another year, after that it may develop some more bottle bouquet but personally I love that in a white!
@FarmstrongWines Thanks and that is exactly what I wanted to hear. Based on the description and tasting notes I doubt the case I just bought will last a year (I blame my wife).
The Farmstrong White Field blend is fragrant yet a little mysterious, a mélange of white peach, star fruit, Mirabelle plum and even a shiso/Meyer lemon tart. It’s fresh, vibrant and alive — a dancing lemon drop enjoyed under the light of a full moon. This wine is a year round white wine, pretty and inviting on the nose, round and full mid palate, while still being light on her feet, she is easy to get along with and super well rounded.
Vineyard and Winemaker’s notes
All three varieties were whole clusters pressed, the juice was cold settled and then racked and coferment as one lot in a stainless tank. The native fermentation was carried out at cool temperatures, allowing for a slow and steady fermentation lasting over a month. After dryness the wine was aged in neutral French oak and received lees stirring, the wine was bottled in June.
Roger King (Ledgewood Vineyard) Grenache Blanc:
Roger is an amazing grower and a huge leader in advocating for sustainable practices in Suisun Valley, this vineyard is dry farmed and he is a firm believer in the art of paying attention in the vineyard, so that if any problems arise they can be treated locally (on a vine by vine basis) not just systematically treating an entire vineyard. This Grenache Blanc clone is from Château de Beaucastel bud wood and was grafted onto King’s established dry farmed Syrah vineyard. This site is ideal. It allows the Grenache Blanc to fully mature at lower ripeness, thus developing complex aromatics and soft tannins while retaining vibrancy.
Babcock Vineyards Albariño and Verdelho:
This vineyard sits adjacent to the Ledgewood Vineyard site and the Onward blocks are also dry farmed. Both properties utilize the underground creek system flowing beneath them. This vineyard is ideal for aromatic whites because of the marine influence and evening wind that cause a large diurnal temperature shift. The result is incredible acid retention in the Albariño along with that maritime influence so important in classic Albariño sites.
Capp Inn Ranch Verdelho:
Capp Inn Ranch vineyard was re-planted to vines in 1995 by the Capp family. The vineyard sits at 180 ft elevation. The soil is Brentwood Series which is clay loam, which drains well, yet retains moisture keeping it available to the vines. The site provides enough daytime sunshine to ripen the Verdelho to express its
tropical and stone fruit and then the cool evening breeze arrives and drops the temperature, thus cooling the vines and maintaining vibrancy and focus in the fruit.
Specifications
Vintage: 2015
Blend: 36% Grenache Blanc, from Roger King’s Ledgewood Vineyard, 38% Albariño from Babcock Vineyard, and 26% Verdelho from Capp Inn Ranch
We have a strong commitment to our environment, and believe that sound practices are not only essential for the survival of the wine industry, but also produce the highest quality wine. To that end, we’ve searched carefully to find vineyard sites that provide excellent fruit quality accompanied by earnestness on behalf of the grower.
We are extremely proud to have formed long-term collaborative relationships with growers at Hawkeye Ranch, Cerise Vineyard, Capp Inn Ranch, Casa Roja Vineyard, Ledgewood Vineyard, Knox Vineyard and Babcock Vineyard.
Onward Wines are single-vineyard, site-driven wines and Farmstrong Wines are blends, and in both expressions the vineyard sites are very special to me. I am a true believer in personal connection and there is a story behind each vineyard site and how it came to be part of my portfolio. In these stories you will learn more about the people behind these vineyards. I liken my connection to these vineyards to that of one’s favorite shirt or coffee mug or chair. Like a well worn fabric or a slightly chipped mug that may have initially caught my eye for its beauty, but over the years it has won my heart because it just feels right. When it comes to vineyards this happens too, and it is a combination of my connection with the vines themselves and my connection with those that tend them. For me the growers hands are most definitely part of the terroir.
My style is about letting the vines speak. They are the art, I am the canvas, my job is to give them a chance to share their beauty in each and every vintage. My decisions are driven from the vineyard and the vintage, my cellar practices are to uphold the truths I find in the vineyard. To this end I pick early looking for balance of flavors at lower ripeness, as I find this is when each vineyard is in its most unique expression of self.
I see these vineyards as treasures. As a winemaker it is my goal to preserve these treasures and share them as wines.

@CruelMelody I was just pondering a six pack, as it seems like a more interesting white than most I’ve had lately. I’d go halvsies and take three; thanks for offering!
In for a case for the wife…I’m not much of a white wine drinker, but this is the 2nd case of white in as many weeks for me.

@jakezim.
Excellent report!
BTW, there ARE unoaked California Chardonnays that don’t have the butter or oak characteristics, like Iron Horse Un-Oaked Chardonnay.
@jakezim Great review.
Based on what you’ve written, I suggest you try some Chablis, and assorted Loire whites in your house.
@MarkDaSpark Thanks for the rec. I once lost a perfectly good day of my life tasting all the sparkling varieties at Iron Horse’s vineyard, and their bubbles are an auto buy for us. Haven’t spent any quality time with their still wines, but I have one in our basement right now from the last offer, so thanks for getting me excited about it.
@michaelvella Excellent idea to have some in our house. But we’d really rather have it in somebody else’s house in, oh, say, Amboise.
@jakezim @MarkDaSpark agree on both counts!

Or strictly a drink now?

I bought a six pack, I’d be down to share 2 or 3 bottles if anyone else in PDX wants to try.
@CruelMelody I was just pondering a six pack, as it seems like a more interesting white than most I’ve had lately. I’d go halvsies and take three; thanks for offering!
@LambruscoKid sounds good! Can you remind me your email, and I’ll contact you when I have the goods!
Had this super wine with a roasted chicken I cooked for friends in Napa last week. Glad I got two bottles. It was a hit. Getting more for the weekend!
I will get over my suspicion that you helicoptered in here out of nowhere just to tout this wine, if you will come to my house and roast me a chicken.
So I bought a case. If anyone near the LBC, I’ll share.
@wildguz I’ll take 3. Looks like an interesting blend. Maybe this one will come in before I pick up the Sauv Blanc?
@davirom @wildguz I would take 3 if not too late
Anyone interested in Dallas? In or around?
Anyone in ATL interested in splitting a 6 pack?
In for a case for the wife…I’m not much of a white wine drinker, but this is the 2nd case of white in as many weeks for me.

Meh, why not. If anyone in CT wants a bottle, I’ll share.

Boo no NH shipping
If anyone in northern MA wants to split…
Sounds delightful. Anyone in NYC willing to part with a couple of bottles, please let me know.
@InFrom I’m getting a case and would be happy to share a few bottles (cellar is overflowing).
