Arnot-Roberts Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict 2023

Arnot-Roberts sources their 2023 Chardonnay from the historic Sanford & Benedict Vineyard, planted in 1971 on silica-rich soils just 10 miles from the Pacific. These old Wente-clone vines yield a wine of precision and coastal vibrancy. Native-yeast fermented and aged in neutral oak and stainless steel, it shows floral lift, orchard fruit, and mineral tension. A cool-climate Chardonnay with elegance and restraint.
