This bottling offers a more affordable and widely available means of sampling what this brand is doing. Mineral-driven aromas of sandstone and damp earth meet with lemon peel and crisp apple on the nose. The palate is extremely grippy in texture, showing citrus, melon and appetizing sea salt flavors.

Sandhi Chardonnay features medium aromatic intensity with sun-ripened apple, wet sandstone, and citrus driving the nose, as well as white flowers and green pear on the palate. 500-litre oak barrel ferments provide depth of texture and complementing flavours of bruised yellow apple and dried white sage that balance sharp acidity. A medium-body mouthfeel widens mid-palette, providing textural weight for a slightly saline mineral finish.
