This Chardonnay has everything we love - freshness, texture, fruit and minerality. On the nose, notes of tangerine, pineapple and pie crust mingle with some sweet herbs: tarragon and lavender. On the palate, this wine will engulf your taste buds like a wave: richness and weight balance a lovely minerality and bright, crunchy acid. This wine is generous up front and leans on the racy acidity to extend the finish as it lingers on the palate. -Lily Hays, Direct to Consumer Business Manager
"The 2021 Chardonnay Bentrock is another super-polished wine in this range. It marries tons of saline freshness with a good bit of depth. Lemon confit, tangerine oil, white pepper and herbs open in a Chardonnay that has plenty of mid-palate richness and overall weight." -Antonio Galloni

"Crisp apple flesh, wet stone, light butter and subtle verbena aromas entertain the nose on this bottling. There's a lively acidity to the palate, where crisp, tart apple flavors meet with lime, lemon and grapefruit elements." -Matt Kettmann

"Bright crushed lemon, melon, minty herbs, and some earthy mineral notes all emerge from the 2021 Chardonnay Bentrock Vineyard, a vibrant, racy, medium-bodied Chardonnay displaying plenty of classic Sta. Rita Hills salinity. It packs lots of acidity but stays balanced. It will benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age." -Jeb Dunnuck
