The Deovlet Sanford & Benedict Vineyard Chardonnay is an exquisite Californian wine. Bright straw in colour, it reveals a nose of luscious fruits, nuanced by toasty oak and vanilla notes. On the palate, there's a beautiful balance of ripe apple and pear flavours, finely interlaced with supple creaminess. Subtle hints of lemon zest and minerality add intricacy. Matured in French oak barrels, it offers a lengthy, elegant finish. This Chardonnay perfectly embodies the prestigious Sanford & Benedict Vineyard, making it a compelling choice for any discerning wine lover.

Tasting Notes

Fine crisp salty stony citrus fruit, very crystalline and precise on the nose - almost Puligny-like, with the a touch of white flower coming through with time. The palate is calm measured and sleek, with a light grip of dry extract, lovely acidity and a sense of clear purity. A fine vein of fresh butter reminds you this is Chardonnay, but the dominant impression at this early juncture is racy fine citrus and polished river stone minerality
