Enfield Wine Company, Cabernet Sauvignon Hennessey Ridge 2018
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Enfield Wine Company is the passion project of John Lockwood and his wife Amy Seese. Founded in 2010, the project is very young, but despite that has recently started to gain attention nationwide. These are truly some of our favorites from California. John only uses native yeast and the wine is never filtered or cold stabilized. The growers he works with changes from year to year while he continues his relationships with small growers from some of California’s most special heritage sites. His passion is contagious and his energy unwavering. Planted at an elevation of 1,200 ft, this organically farmed 100% Cabernet Sauvignon bottling is a true labor of love. In the vinification process grapes are fully de-stemmed and hand-mixed twice daily during a 3 week native yeast fermentation. The wine is then aged on its lees in once-used French oak barrels.
