 SANDHI CHARDONNAY 2010

White Wine Hand-Picked
91 Pts ST <font color=red><strong>91 pts Tanzer</strong></font><br>Made from grapes grown in the Sanford & Benedict, Bien Nacido and Ritas Crown vineyards): Bright gold. Pear, lemon and toasty lees on the nose, along with notes of iodine and anise. Fleshy, ripe, chewy and deep, with impressive energy to its orchard and citrus fruit flavors. A complex and intense rendition of New World chardonnay, finishing with excellent clarity and mineral-driven persistence. This is a steal. Tanzers Josh Reynolds <br>I am convinced they are onto something. -Jancis Robinson<br>Such was Jancis Robinsons enthusiastic review of the Sandhi wines when she tasted them this spring. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate matter of factly declared: Sandhi is one of the most exciting new wineries in central California.<br>The 2010 Sandhi Santa Barbara County Chardonnay is California with definition and clarity; it is 12.5% alcohol and low-oak with that crushed stone and white flowers that is so suggestive of Chablis. The palate is finely threaded with flowers, lemon and orange peel, juicy citrus and stone fruits with great minerality.<br>This has been one of the most anticipated new wine projects to come out of Californias Central Coast in a long time. I had heard about this great collaboration about a year ago at a huge Pinot Tasting in NYC last year and have been patiently awaiting some availability for our customers. The word Sandhi means collaboration in Sanskrit and is a joint project between three wine VIPs. The first, Charles Banks who with a partner in 2006 purchased Screaming Eagle, the ultimate Cult Napa Cabernet. In 2000 he purchased a cattle ranch in Santa Barbara which became Jonata, Andy Erickson winemaker at Screaming Eagle was hired as consultant and Matt Dees was hired as winemaker. Jonata exploded onto the scene in 2005 scoring 95-97 pts and by 2007 scoring 97-100 points. He is also involved in other Erickson ventures such as Leviathan, a wine we showcased recently as well interests in South Africa, a partner in the great Mulderbosch there. Next is Rajat Parr one of the greatest Sommeliers in the US today, apprenticing under master sommeliers, Larry Stone at Rubicon in San Francisco where he developed an appreciation for great Burgundy. He then moved to Fifth Floor in San Francisco which after two years earned a Grand Award from Wine Spectator. In 2003, Parr was named wine director for the Mina Restaurant Group which own about fifteen of the finest Restaurants in the US. He has become familiar with many of California's greatest wines, he is a master of food and wine, hosting seminars and leading panel discussions at several of the country's most prestigious food and wine gatherings. His new book, Secrets of the Sommeliers, chronicles his experiences. Lastly we have Winemaker Sashi Moorman. Sashi started on the food side working in NYC and DC. In 1996 he started a five-year apprenticeship with Adam Tolmach and The Ojai Vineyard. In 2001 he joined Stolpman Vineyards who make some of the best wine in the cebtral Coast and later adding Evening Land who makes some of the greatest Pinot Noir's in the Santa Rita Hills and Santa Barbara County. The Sandhi Winery is focusing on the finest of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. They want there wines to be about finesse, subtle, nuanced and sublime, they have focused on higher elevation vineyards to add minerality and concentration. Elegance and purity is key using a minimalist approach, making wines of spectacular balance expressing the terroir of each vineyard.
