A great, distinctive wine that balances chalky, minerally and nervy aspects with lush, ripe pears, toasted almonds and hints of marzipan. It's quite tight and steely in texture, holding those intricate flavors with a firm feel and a long finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2028.

The 2022 Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict is true to this site's composed elegance and nuance, showing a mélange of orchard fruits, bright baking spices and citrus blossoms. The palate is generous yet measured, with a faintly enveloping texture that seamlessly unwinds into a beautiful, refined finish, highlighting the vineyard's river rock stoniness. While not the most flashy or intense iteration of this historic site, its classiness fits right into the Sandhi roster.

Damp lemon, wet riverstone and briny seashore aromas show on the nose of this bottling. Citrus peel kick on the palate clings to a firm texture that's currently hiding some of the flavors that will arise with time. Drink 2025-2037.

Juicy and mouthwatering up front, this white's core of lemon confit, pomelo and lime zest is accented by vibrant acidity. Offers notes of freshly grated ginger, white pepper and orange blossoms on a sleek, precise frame. A hint of oolong tea comes in on the long finish. Drink now. 339 cases made.

The 2022 Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict is one of the more tightly wound, reticent wines in the range. It offers plenty of energy. Citrus peel, white pepper, mint and crushed rocks are all finely delineated. I admire the wine's energy, but at the same time, I feel picking a touch riper would allow more site character to show.
