Sandhi is a small production California winery focusing on wines made from select vineyards that have been exhaustively vetted for character, personality, and balance. Founded by Rajat Parr, the wine director for Michael Mina Restaurants, and esteemed winemaker, Sashi Moorman, these wineries represent this dynamic duo’s belief that great wines are a collaboration between man, earth, and vine.

The wines of Sandhi are Raj and Sashi’s love letters to the Santa Rita Hills appellation. Some of the wines are from legendary vineyards that helped put the appellation on the map and some from newer sites. Just like the property that became Domaine de la Cote, these sites are chosen for their ability to produce wines of finesse, minerality, acidity, structure and balance.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 93
"The 2021 Chardonnay Sanford & Benedict is scented of white peach, roasted almonds, fresh bread and beeswax with savory undertones. The light-bodied palate is silky and bright with gregarious orchard fruit and a long, nuanced finish."

Decanter

D 94
"Each of Sandhi's Santa Rita Hill Chardonnays exhibits a thrilling verve and intensity. However, the Sanford & Benedict bottling, sourced from a vineyard planted in 1971 at a lower elevation than the Patterson, shows an openness of fruit and delightfully floral perfume that lend hedonism and immediacy. Bright-eyed and delightfully steely, it's a finely focused wine that's enjoyable now but likely to mature well."
