Sandhi
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.
Description
“The 2018 Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills opens with touches of flint and struck match with notes of crunchy tree fruits and nutty accents. The palate is medium-bodied with the same flint, nutty character, bright acidity and a long, layered finish. This could use another year or two in bottle.” RP
Food Pairing
Serve with BBQ lemon chicken, or roasted leek and asparagus tarte.
