Central Coast Chardonnay

Pork, Vegetarian, Poultry, Rich fish (salmon, tuna etc)

Replaces the Santa Barbara County Chardonnay, as sites are now sourced in and outside of the AVA, resulting in the wider Central Coast designation, with intent to source only old vine Chardonnay from the likes of Bien Nacido and Talley Valley. These are armed without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. There is now a small inclusion of Chardonnay from Domaine de la Côte.

Aged 6 months in neutral barrel (30%) and Stainless Steel (70%)

Fermented in stainless steel. 100% malolactic fermentation.

Sandhi is a small production California winery focusing on select vineyards from the Sta. Rita Hills in Santa Barbara County. Sandhi was founded in 2010 by Rajat Parr, the wine director for Michael Mina Restaurants, and winemaker, Sashi Moorman. Sandhi represents a union essential to the production of wine: the collaboration between man, earth, and vine. The willing participation of all three elements is necessary to make great wine, and the winegrower must make this collaboration rich and nourishing for all involved. An understanding of these joint efforts informs Sandhi’s exploration of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines throughout the Santa Barbara County terroir.
