CHANIN Chardonnay, Sanford & Benedict Vineyard 2013

This gorgeous Chardonnay from Gavin Chanin is sourced from the oldest vines in the Sanford & Benedict vineyard. As this slowly begins to unwind in the glass beautiful aromas of lemon oil and hints of pineapple are woven together with honey suckle, white florals and minerals. This shows excellent depth and focus with a lovely textured mouthfeel which is backed by bright acidity that continues on all the way through the finish. This chardonnay is drinking beautifully upon release and should continue to so for close to a decade. (Best 2015-2023) - May, 2015 (JD)
