2022 Sanford and Benedict Chardonnay, Chanin

S&B is Santa Barbara’s most celebrated vineyard, and Gavin Chanin is today undoubtedly one of its greatest exponents. Textured yet energetic, his 2022 S&B Chardonnay is an absolute triumph. It’s already complex and expressive on the nose, with juicy white stone fruit, orchard fruit, floral and nutty aromas. The palate is rich and rounded, but with bright acidity, a pulsating mineral core and cleansing finish. Quite simply, this has it all!
