From a limestone-rich, high-elevation site on a dramatic hillside above the Santa Ynez River, this Burgundian-styled Chardonnay channels mineral precision. The palate opens with saline minerality framing apricot skin, early-season nectarine, and subtle bee pollen. Aged in French oak with restraint, the wine balances richness with an airy, chalk-dusted structure. Sta. Rita Hills at its most refined.
