Chanin Sanford & Benedict Vineyard Chardonnay 2018

Ratings on Delectable

Andrew Cullimore

Light lemon yellow . Quite discreet on the nose , takes a bit of time to get going . Yellow fruits, pineapple , passion fruit , lemon rind, slightly smoky note. On the palate good balance , more of those yellow fruits , but a mineral undertone also . Good acidity , though the palate is quite generous , it is well balanced . Length is ok with nice mineral complexity just a touch of warmth from the alcohol. This appears to be drinking well though appears to have quite a lot left in the tank , will last and maybe even improve over the next 4-7 years.

Chardonnay from some of the oldest vines in the Sanford & Benedict vineyard, one of the most historic vineyards in California. Pure, fresh nose with lemon peel, coconut, vanilla and subtle oaky notes. Medium-bodied, round, creamy texture. Citrus, yeasty notes and minerals. Very fresh. Zesty acidity
