Sandlands
California White Blend
Popped and poured; no formal notes. A waxy texture with stone fruits, pear, lemon, limes, and white flowers. Good acid for food. Enjoyed this bottle with Thanksgiving dinner and it was a great pairing with all of the typical Thanksgiving fare. This is drinking really well right now and should for several years to come.

Bring me more. Two of my favorite varietals in one place. Smashing.

Dec 23rd, 2021My first experience with Sandland’s White Table Wine. Apparently, it’s Tegan’s love for Mediterranean white wines that is said to be the inspiration. This wine was released for the first time in 2019. What’s basically a 60/40-ish blend of Lodi Chenin Blanc and Napa Semillon, the wine pours a pale straw color with medium viscosity and no signs of particles or gas. On the nose, white flowers, peach, pear, some citrus and lanolin. On the palate, the wine is dry. Again with the pears and some papaya and citrus too. Medium body. Medium to medium+ acidity with a long, tropical finish. 7 barres produced and I was only allocated 2 bottles this time around but seriously grateful for what I can get! Paired well with summer, grilled sausages and poblano peppers.
