critic reviews
The 2021 Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict Vineyard is youthfully shy on the nose, taking plenty of air to segue from initial saline and roasted almond scents to deeper tones of yellow apples and meringue. The light-bodied palate has a satiny texture and balances expansive, nutty flavors with a foil of laser-like acidity. It has a long, mouth-coating finish and offers the concentration and structure to age well in bottle over the next decade or more. 114 cases were made.
A wine of crystalline precision and tension, Deovlet's 2021 Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict Vineyard shows the more nervy side of this site. Citrus peel, white pepper, crushed rocks and mint all race across the palate. Aging mostly in large format works so well here in preserving freshness and a real sense of vibrancy that is impossible to miss.
