Sterling 2017 Oak Knoll Chardonnay

This classic golden Napa Valley Chardonnay offers ripe apple aromas and flavors typical of the Oak Knoll district offset by lemony citrus and meringue with yeasty buttered toast notes. Oak spice and vanilla give way to hints of caramel nougat and toasted hazelnut. Creamy and round in mouth-feel with bright acidity, the wine is elegant with a memorable, lingering finish.
