I generally like what Benziger is doing with the Signaterra line and the Sangiacomo Vineyard Chardonnay is interesting. Medium straw color and medium bodied. Some peach and steely granite on the palate. I differ with others on the optimal serving temperature for this wine. IMO, as this warmed up, the clean, steely, granite notes morphed to an oily, oaky finish.

I'm a fan of the Sangiacomo vineyard. This is a solid effort but nothing amazing. Nose of peach and white flowers. peach and citrus on the pallet with a decent amount of acidity on the finish. better served on the warmer side, 60+. drink now.

Still drinks beautifully, tastes fresh and youthful. Nice fruit notes, very little oak. A very nice take on CA Chardonnay.
