Savoury delight. Hugely impressed with this old vine Zin. And what a story behind the wine too. To drink it with Raj Parr was pretty special too! — 5 months ago

Lovely wine for a cool spring evening. The young Syrah plays first chair in the beautiful nose. Nice licorice and structure, but not much else at this age. Lay this down for at least a few years. — 3 years ago

DRC clippings grown at Domaine de La Cote (Sta Rita Hills). First harvest since 2015 planting. Dark and opaque. Nose is extremely expressive and complex to the point where it’s difficult to describe. Brandy soaked maraschino cherries, violets, fennel, herbs, and much more. Silky on the palette with concentrated, long acid. Shows excellent grace and finesse esp for such youth. — 3 years ago

Sandhi ‘Romance’ Chardonnay (2020) is made exclusively with grapes from the Domaine de la Côte estate vineyards, farmed organically, within the Sta Rita Hills AVA of the Central Coast region of California.

After a wild-yeast fermentation, this wine aged 10 months in neutral oak and 6 months in tank. It is textured with flinty mineral notes, next to layered aromas and flavors of toast, cream, cheese rind, white blossom, lime zest and just-ripe apple, pear, white peach, nectarine, honeydew, and starfruit. It is precise, elegant, and nuanced.

It has a freshness and vibrancy with a textured mouthfeel, bright acidity, and a delicately reductive character. At 12.8% ABV, this wine sits firmly within the medium alcohol range, speaking to the cooling coastal winds that are prevalent in the Sta Rita Hills AVA.

It’s absolutely delicious and a versatile culinary complement.

Cheers to Sandhi and beautiful, terroir-driven California Chardonnays! — 2 months ago

Light, chillable red. Drinks like tart, refreshing cranberries and rocks. Lovely. Paired really well with my spicy steak noodles.
