Sterling Vintner's Collection Chardonnay 2009

Central Coast VT

With bright, enticing aromas of tropical fruit, green apple and white flowers, the wine opens up into well-rounded flavors of melon, peach, and fig cupped by vanilla and spice. From beginning to end, the wine tantalizes the palate with the perfect poise of refreshing acidity and mouth-filling creaminess. An ideal pairing for summer fare: fresh fish thrown on the grill or pasta tossed with basil, chicken and vegetables.
