Sandhi was founded in 2010 by Rajat Parr, wine director for Michael Mina Restaurants, and Sashi Moorman, a chef-turned-winemaker. Based in the Santa Rita Hills, Sandhi sources Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from area vineyards. Parr, who has become one of the most ambitious and complimented wine entrepreneurs on the Central Coast, and Moorman are especially noted for their Chardonnays. Wine writers have described Sandhi Chardonnays as Burgundian in style, though clearly from California in terms of the ripeness of the fruit.
