Sterling Heritage Napa Valley Chardonnay 2019 750mL

The Chardonnay fruit was harvested in the cool morning hours and sent directly to press at the winery. The majority of the fruit was barrel fermented in French (75%) and American (25%) oak to impart rich texture and added spice notes. In the 2015 vintage only a small portion of the blend (10%) was fermented in stainless-steel tanks to capture bright fruit character and retain fresh acidity.

The final wine is elegant and shows a core of beautiful fruit character with balanced, bright acidity.
