Field 3’s fruit-ahead character resonates well against gentle oak aging. Crafted by Botham Vineyard's in small quantities and only in years when the Léon Millot grapes in Field III of their vineyard are ripened to perfection, this wonderfully unusual dry red is as indicative of its growing environment as a wine can be. Fruit-forward, earthy and filled with rich, spicy substance that illuminates its fig, date, raisin and berry wit, Field 3 ages well, gaining splendor and round softness in the bottle. Serve Field 3 with steak, steak, steak … with mushrooms and melted Bleu Cheese, creamy mashed potatoes and crisp asparagus. Be daring and pair Field 3 also with hard cheeses like fresh Parmesan or 10-year Cheddar and smoked Gouda in the dessert course. It is a lovely and lively companion to any mushroom-inspired dish.
