Wine Description
Sanford 2006 Santa Barbara County Chardonnay comes from three esteemed vineyards. Their estate vineyard, La Rinconada, provides the majority of fruit, while Bien Nacido and Sanford & Benedict add to the complexity of this fruit forward, but complex wine.
This barrel fermented Chardonnay shows all of the exotic tropical fruit for which Santa Barbara is renowned, along with elegant citrus and minerality from the Santa Rita Hills. This full bodied wine has nice acidity to keep it in balance and makes a nice complement to most seafood, poultry and pasta with lighter sauces.
