2020 Pyramid Valley Vineyards 'Field of Fire' Chardonnay, Canterbury, New Zealand
$110.00
If you’re in our wine club Leon Circle, you know my feelings about Canterbury. It’s a profound terroir defined by limestone, made famous to us years ago by a small biodynamic winery, Pyramid Valley. The wines moved me deeply and made me pay attention. They grew into cult status, the original owner passed away and the wines seemingly disappeared. But, under new ownership,the same limestone-driven wines have been brought back to life. With the same strict adherence to Biodynamics and natural winemaking, the wines are profound. Having just tasted the whole lineup, I can say: they’re not just a reminder of the old wines but a true return to them.
