Sandlands Chenin Blanc (Amador County) 2020

WineSaint

Lemon confit and dried herbs frame this precise expression of old-vine Amador fruit. The palate shows excellent mineral drive with touches of stone fruit and wildflower honey, though it wants more mid-palate weight. Clean, focused finish with that distinctive granite-driven character.

Sandlands

Tegan Passalacqua's Sandlands focuses on old-vine California varieties, particularly from Lodi and Contra Costa County, making low-intervention wines from Carignan, Mataro, Trousseau, and Syrah that reward serious attention.
