Bright citrus oil and white flowers open to reveal that signature Bien Nacido salinity. The palate shows impressive precision, with chalky minerality threading through the clean finish. Tightly coiled now. Give it another year or two to reveal its full complexity.

Chanin

Chanin is a Santa Barbara négociant-style operation focused on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from benchmark Central Coast vineyards, with a Syrah thread running quietly beneath. The wines are site-specific, restrained, and built for the table.
