It's the very first vintage from a young vineyard, and only 246 cases were made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSandhi was founded by sommelier Rajat Parr and winemaker Sashi Moorman to make Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with more finesse and less alcohol than the California norm. In 2017, Moorman helped the Hines family plant the William Hines Vineyard on a steep, north-facing slope at the northeastern edge of the appellation. It is one of the few sites in the Sta. Rita Hills planted on limestone, and it is farmed organically. The wine was fermented with native yeasts in a large foudre and a 500L barrel, aged 10 months in mostly neutral oak (25% new), then rested in stainless steel before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Suckling gave it 97 points for its layers of honey, almond, chalk and macadamia over a rich, creamy texture that still feels light on its feet. Vinous called it a \"terrific debut,\" with citrus peel, white pepper, white flowers and a touch of oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe it lightly chilled with roast chicken, Dungeness crab, or halibut in brown butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePracticing organic farming.
