Sterling Vineyards
Napa Valley Chardonnay
Napa Valley, California, USA
On the nose this wine has a light peach fuzz scent. On the palate, this is yellow apple and ripe peach. The oak comes through with a funny vanilla zing that doesn't feel perfectly integrated. For me, it's that note that I taste through the finish as well. In chatting about the wine we agreed that it was "mushy". It misses the mark for me, but it's drinkable.

Light vanilla nose, medium bodied but on the light side for a chardonnay, some nice tropical fruitiness, but slightly acrid on the back end.
