title: Saintsbury 2013 Sangiacomo Green Acres Heritage Block Old Wente Chardonnay (Carneros)
description: A salty lick of saline brings the palate to attention before tingling acidity seals the experience: the wine's backbone a nicely balanced combination of generous oak that supports ripe fruit. Francois Freres and Taransaud barrels cradled the wine for 10 months, only 35% of it new, making for a robust yet elegant expression of the variety from this site.
