"The 2019 Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict is a gorgeous captivating wine endowed with striking aromatics and tons of sheer character. Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and tangerine oil all grace this compelling, highly nuanced Chardonnay. What stands out most is the wine's translucent personality, often a feature of wines made from the early 1970s own-rooted blocks at S&B." 

Wine Advocate, 93 Points 

"The 2019 Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict opens chalky and citrusy, before deeper scents of roasted almonds, white flowers and honey emerge over time in the glass. The light-bodied palate is still youthfully tangy and mineral-driven, but it finishes with length and savory nuances that hint at much more to come with additional time in bottle." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict is such a wonderfully complete wine that expresses all of the pedigree of this historic Sta. Rita Hills site. Sweet, perfumed aromatics and radiant fruit envelop the senses. Lemon confit, marzipan and white flowers are some of the many aromas and flavors that open in the glass."
