Santa Barbara is a quiet sanctuary of golden hills and well-groomed vineyards midway between Los Angeles and San Francisco. Bench Break Vineyard is located on the steepest, highest elevation area of the Cambria Estate on the Santa Maria Bench. Seventeen miles to the west, the Pacific Ocean makes its presence known most days with driving winds and white fog.

The Bench Break Vineyard Chardonnay is as compelling as the landscape itself. Rich, full and balanced with pineapple, fresh butter, citrus blossom, pear and vanilla.
