A half century since its Chardonnay vines were planted, Sanford & Benedict is inimitable; it can be nothing but itself. Poised and mineral, this bottling shows hallmark aromatics in lime leaf, salted grapefruit, crushed seashell and peach blossom. The palate brings more flesh and fruit, leaning into apricot with bright, saline flavors and a gentle touch of well-integrated oak that’s more texture than taste. Effortlessly fresh, mineral as always, this wine underscores what first drew Raj to Sanford & Benedict 20 years ago.
