Santa Maria Valley, Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, United StatesBenchbreak opens on the rich side of chardonnay with caramel, brown spices and vanilla dominating the nose. Underneath is a citrus, mango and pineapple core that scrubs some of the richness off the back end of the palate. It is 100 percent chardonnay and a broad mix of clones including 4, 76, 96 and Wente. Benchbreak is a cool coastal vineyard at 400-800 metres above sea level, made up of ancient fossilized seashells, shale, limestone and sand. Serve with crab, lobster or creamy shrimp dishes.Tasted: 25 August 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $30.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
