2012 Sterling Chardonnay

Perfectly balanced, our 2012 Chardonnay delivers an intensity of bright, refreshing flavors in a juicy, supple style. White peach, fresh tropical fruits and fragrant orange blossoms are layered with spicy vanilla oak. Winemaker Jim Corkin chose to barrel ferment a portion of the wine, which gave just the right amount of weight and complexity to the vibrant fruit flavors. The result is a dynamic palate that evolves as it progresses, lingering with a long finish of citrus and baking spices. Enjoy this wine with light pasta dishes, grilled seafood or roast chicken.
