Simultaneously indulgent and refined, with notes reminiscent of stone fruit, honeycomb, and a hint of citrus zest on the nose. The palate mirrors Santa Barbara’s most celebrated delicacy—urchin harvested from the Channel Islands—offering a luxurious combination of opulence and precision. Each sip ebbs and flows, with Roussanne’s richness gently receding into Chardonnay’s crisp, clean finish. Enjoy this bright and expressive white blend in its youth.
